Hey Deb,

I haven't received it, but a good friend of mine did this morning. Apparently, it's an inactivity bonus (like some of the other rooms do) for folks who haven't played Carbon for awhile.

Unfortunately, that's not me, as Carbon and I are best friends LOL.

I was an infrequent player at best (a few hours of cash and a touney or two every few weeks tops). Played there a bit regularly but that was almost 16 months ago, maybe more.

They did the same to me, won $100 on a CC freeroll there a while back, next time I logged on it was gone due to previous inactivity. Got straight on to live chat, they gave it back to me straight away, chat said they normally do if you complain, so can imagine they make quite a bit from the players that say F it and uninstall.

Woot. I had .98 cents in my account until I got this $5 bonus- Donked it all off on a night of tilting in cash games. Was waiting for some like, .10cent tournaments to start back up. Lol. But this, this is good.

Good luck with those 5$, Deb. BTW, I didn't receive that email.

Indeed, they can take quite a bite from your balance due to inactivity. They charged me as well, but that was maybe 2 - 3 years ago. Don't remember how much it was, but it was a significant amount. As I recall they do that if the account has been inactive for 6 months.

I received the $5 as well. After playing a few of the cash games, I remembered why I quit playing that site. Other than them taking my points due to inactivity, I have never received as many bad beats on any other site than I did on Carbon. I just feel like something is not right with that place.

I received the free 5 dollar this weekend also, but i had stopped playing on carbon a while back. I dont think the free 5 will make me want to go and play there now. I did like the software on carbon , the way it looked mostly, not the bad beats. LOL
