I have been tearing it up...well, some anyway, lol. I'm in the $33.00 main event (#83) and the 7.5k GTD $2.20 game (event #9). I have managed numerous 1.10 and 2.20 ticket wins. BTW, you can use those in non-PM games as well.

The action for the $33.00 ticket games has been crazy. I played one a day for three days, ended up with a ticket and a $5.00 profit. These games are nice because of the rebuy. I know some of the players I saw in each game easily spent more than $30.00 rebuying and insta-adding on over the three days. I only did the initial buy-in and later spent the extra buck on the 20k add on after the break.

Since they have a hour long (or more) late entry, it gets up to 1400 in the BB prior to the break and they still buy in, despite starting at that point with only 2 BB's.

Crazy!

I have a $20 ticket and would like to break it up but have not received an answer from Carbon. Has anyone done this or knows how it can be arranged?

Sounds awesome. I've never played in it as I only found my way back to online poker a few months ago. I guess this is the closest a US player can get to the feel of playing in the SCOOP or WCOOP.

I thought Carbon was having troubles paying out, and didn't they have a ton of overlays in the last Maximus/have to cancel a bunch of the tournaments? I'd love to play in these but I feel like I'd never get the money if I won anything substantial...

Are you sure you're not thinking of Lock Poker? I can't find anything about Carbon having issues.

Carbon was pretty slow in the past couple months, but recently, according to the monthly US withdrawal report by PokerAffiliateSolutions, Carbon has improved greatly their withdrawal speed.

Well, I played the 7.5k game. There were an incredible number of entries with the 3 hour or so late reg. It was only 2.20 to enter, that only gets more players in.

I busted out half way through then rebought to sit in with 10 BB's, and was almost at the money bubble after doing pretty good when I ran hard into a calling station at a new table who just never saw a board with enough danger to a small pair, lol. ("only 5 overcards, a four flush and four to a st8 I have none of? Sure, I'll call! After all, I got a under pair to the boards bottom pair!").

After that I was crippled and soon went bye-bye. At least I got to see the sheriff that crippled me get ran over, after the whole table saw what he did (he was busted by someones overpair to the board when he would not let go of a middle pair and crap kicker, lol).

I'm hoping the 33 dollar game will bring better results on the 22nd. I might try to get into some more games after I re build my bankroll there.
