Carbon Poker is an online poker room that is part of the Merge network of poker sites. A benefit of being part of a poker network is that the traffic is shared with other sites on it.

After 'Black Friday' of poker in May 2011, USA based players can no longer play on Full Tilt and PokerStars. This has meant thousands of online poker players looking for an alternative poker site to play on. Many of these USA sit n go (SNG)players have moved to Carbon, so its traffic has increased significantly. (For an up to date snapshot of player traffic across the online poker sites, have a look at the poker traffic live report).

Rakeback on Carbon is available up to a generous 35% making it an attractive proposition for USA sit n go poker players coming from Full Tilt (where they'd have been used to a rakeback amount of 27%).

I do like the software - I think the interface is a very 'clean' design, and there is also a 'mini mode' which is great if you're wanting to increase available on your screen. Check out the screenshots below to get an idea.

Sit N Go buyins range from $0.11 to $5580. Their full-ring SNG games are 10 player rather than 9 and are at a range of speeds including Superturbo. If you really want to take shove/fold to the limit they offer an 'all in or fold' game which frankly seems daft but might be enjoyable to the inebriated player :)

If you're an ex-PokerStars player who misses the popular DoNs (Double Or Nothings), Carbon Poker offers these.

Traffic is likely to increase further in the wake of 'Black Friday'. For poker players new to the site, Carbon Poker offers a generous 100% first time deposit bonus up to $600.

For the USA SNG players, you can deposit to Carbon poker using credit cards (Visa or Mastercard) or via Click2Pay. Non-USA sit n go players will have more options including MoneyBookers.
