Was playing a range of .5/.10 nolimit and it was so soft,built up my bankroll on there in about an hour or so.

I regularly take down cash in the $5 bounty SnG's...

Ive never played on that site. What are some opinions out there of Carbon Poker? Do they offer any good promotions I mostly only play on full tilt.
Thanks

From what i hear Carbon offers daily rakeback bonuses. Also if you are paranoid, there is no hand tracking, HUDs, or scripts allowed at Carbon, and yes they allow USA players.

I made some great money on that site about half-a-year ago. I always found the cash games to be somewhat soft but was absolutely crushing the MTT's because of the soft and dumb play by others. Built the roll up to almost 1k, cashed 4 hundo or so out and gave the rest back on blackjack lol.

Does carbon poker offer $ 0.05/ 0.10 limit and $0.10/$0.20 limit games?

If we're ever in a convenience store together i want to buy the lotto ticket AFTER yours... I've built rolls quite a few times on Carbon from nothing.

Are you sure about that ? Holdem Manager works fine with Carbon and, if one is not allowed to use it, I have not been told that and committed the offence just yesterday.

I have emailed customer support about this question - they said they would answer within the next 3-7 hours.

Carbon`s TOS contains the usual rules against using bots and similar software designed for cheating, but no suggestion that tracking programs such as HEM or PT are banned.

I think IceMonkey may have been thinking of Cake, which does ban trackers and HUDs. As far as I am aware, Cake is the only major poker room which takes that stance.

Dear Stefan,

Thank you for contacting us.

So in short it is completely ok to use a HUD software.

It took them only 4 hrs

Yep, very soft...how is best way to transfer or withdraw funds from Carbon? I have too much funds there and too little on PokerStars and FullTilt ... wish these sites allowed transfers between sites, but they do not to my knowledge.

Do any poker sites allow transfers between poker sites, even ones under same ownership?

My best, Wally

If u guys say the micro cash game is soft than my game must really be bad lol. What I can say is the MTT is very soft.
