I have never played on Carbon, i have played on party poker when i was a teenager but just for play chips and then started playin on Stars and FTP but havent been on Stars in a while so i just stick wit FTP.
The only reason I'm on it at all is for the freerolls. Their withdrawal system is terrible (they take SO much out compared to the free service on FT) and they won't let you transfer tournament coupons into cash.
The other day I won a $109 tournament coupon, but I can't play at the actual tournament because there is a time conflict. And I contacted them and basically their reply was "Too bad, sorry can't help you"![]()

Trust me man, unless it's for the free rolls, carbon isn't worth it. Stars and FT WAYYY above Carbon's level in terms of comfort and support.

Yea thats what i heard but i dont plan on downloading any other pokersites anyway, im just gonna stick wit FTP.
Carbon Poker is good for players that generate a high volume of play as they have a 35% rakeback deal payed daily into your account.
Ouch. How much are they taking out for withdrawals? More than a few dollars for servicing fees?
Also, regarding the tournament coupons, that's pretty lame.

I believe it's a $15 surcharge fee.
I'm not sure what to do about the tourney coupon. I just hope they provide other avenues for me to use it.

If you can't play this week's $109 game you ticket is good till they quit holding those games. Are you planning on being busy every sunday for the rest of your life? Play it when you can. I like Carbon and have successfully played there for years.
That's reassuring to hear, ty! But yea, I am busy EVERY Sunday at the exact time the 50k is being held, sucks for me. Maybe one of these days they'll hold a tournament transfer fee like ft, I hope so.
