hey guys. new to the site, hope everyone is well. i have to bring up my experience with carbon poker. I have the wildest time playing on that site since about a little less than a year ago. I have been playing poker for about 2-3 years and have watched my game mature over the years to the point where i feel that in any live game at the casino ill walk out up 100-300 ish after a few hours of playing roughly 55-67 or so percent of the time. i'm just ball parking. I got into carbon about a year ago since i live in the states and in the beginning i would get demolished. I had one good heater where i turned 10 bucks in a .10 .25 game into 230, and since then it has all been down hill. i don't mean to come on here and rant, and maybe this complaining rubs people the wrong way but im looking to see if anyone else has had a strange experience with them? im not saying that anything is rigged like some people say but im not saying its definitely not. i've switched up my strategy numerous times and it would seem like it works then a couple days later nope. tonight i gave it another shot, hopped into a 25. .50 and got taken. i have the roll, but it is coming off of there asap. had AJ off, board came AKQ, villain bet i raised he called, turn came the J i bet 3 he called, river i shoved for the rest of my stack and he flipped over jacks. now i know his is normal, but to me on carbon it seems abnormal. the fact that the flop contains all cards that i could pair with to make me many stronger hands than his jacks and he continues to play seems strange. maybe people seem to stick around a hand when they think their beat just because it seems the suck outs always happen? it constantly seems as if merge influences players to bet, putting appetizing cards on the board and in players hands knowing they're going to go at it thus generating rake. i have felt like this time after time. i cant stand people that whine bu after tonight and deciding to wash my hands of carbon i just felt like throwing this out there. this is just my opinion
