Carbon Poker is one of the largest and most respected poker skins on the Merge Network, they also are US friendly. The software is good, stable and the network attracts a lot of new players. This means that the lower stakes games can be surprisingly loose for players use to other sites and networks.
Carbon Poker offer a wide range and variety of poker games including Texas Holdem, 7Card Stud, 7Card Stud Hi/Lo, PLO and Omaha Hi/Lo, HORSE, Razz, 5 Card Stud, 5 Card Draw, A-5 Lowball, 2-7 Lowball and Badugi. The most popular tournaments are PLO and NLH but they do have a few Badugi and Draw tournaments runnings.
The player liquidity is OK for a smaller network and you should have no trouble getting games at the lower stakes. Poker games that are not so popular may not be that busy depending on the time of day you want to play them.
They have a busy tournament schedule that does not have monster prize pools, but this means you can play a tournament and cash within a couple of hours. Instead of having to play half a day to cash and just win your buy in back. It is a pleasant change and one of the reasons why tournament players stick with Carbon Poker.
The software is good and improving all the time, with great features such as the “rabbit cam” and the “expose 1 card” feature.
