I AGREE.
i've played online since pokerstars was still available to US players. i play on Sportsbook which is Carbon's other site. i've had more fishy bad beats there than all other sites combined. players doing ridiculously stupid all ins with no pairs or draws and miraculously come out a winner. i raise 10 times the pot with aa preflop and they go all in with k3off or worse and win. had this happen 4 times in 1 day. they have very good software but something ain't right there.

really got to question this i play freerolls on carbon daily primarily and 1-2 buy ins I havent seen what your talking about maybe im just luckier right now.

I have played carbon since 2010 no issues love the RNG to me it rings true and is very fair compared to other sites

I am thetick33carbonpoker you can look me up:) I should be in the freeniums 8pm and 10pm most days sometimes the 2.20 7:30 750 guar too other times 3.30 buy ins etc.. different times like four pm 4 hours late regg etc..

For some reason i turned off sharkscope for awhile I have turned back on but only has my play till 2015 nothing new is showing up which sucks cause im winning often lol. Anyway gl all at the tables and in life. Say hello if see me playing

A while back I withdrew around $80 that I had built up without depositing. I actually got some kind of special offer from them to process the withdrawl through Moneygram, I accepted it and got my money in less than a week. Clearly they are at least trying to address the problem they have with withdrawl length.

i've switched to chico and doubled my stack. i might think it is my bad play at carbon but my buddy has same things happen to him. i don't mind a bad beat with pair over pair, set over set, etc. i expect that to happen.
i'm talking about crap hands all in preflop against my big pairs and i lose most of the time. thats not supposed to happen but it has regularly over 5 years. stay with a site where you're winning. good luck all.

Are they still blocking players from certain US states?

I am not sure if they are blocking players but, I posted here about a year ago asking about withdraws. I had NO problems and it was about the normal wekk and a half, two weeks.

This is a matter of state law. I had to move north of the Ohio River in order to play. Unforch, Kentucky is very uptight about more than just playing on-line Poker. Another reason to move was so's I could get a pet otter. You can't even drive through that state with an "exotic" without risking losing your pet should you be pulled over for whatever reason.

In the "land of the free", freedom has been on a sixty year long retreat.

Threads like this can mean the death trap for a site like carbon, more players withdraw, people hold their deposits making carbons cashflow even worse. A sad situation to be in for carbon. Good luck.

Carbon Poker Must Read

I was ranked 5th at Carbon Poker for the year of 2008 with continued success at pokerstars and fulltilt. I won from 2008-2011. After Black Friday, no one has won any significant amount of money over an extended period of time. The last 7 years on Carbon has been bot filled and bad beats. The best players have all quit. You can sharkscope one player that quit. LTUFLAWLESS. He was up about 200K up to 2011, then he went about 2,000 games of no profit and I haven’t seen him play since. Just sharkscope him and look at his graph. Same with all the best players at the site. Not one of them play at Carbon Poker anymore.
