Default Re: Is there any reason to check out Carbon Poker?

I've played there a bit to get my free nevada jacks.

Pros:

-software is OK compared to some other smaller sites i've played (even resizable tables)
-they seem to hand out their "comp points" on dealt hands although their ToC says contributed only.
-the software has a lot of features that should attract the fish if they ever heard of the site (you can show one card or two, show your cards when you fold in a heads up pot, funny smilies and "chat bubbles", cups are displayed if someone has won a freeroll)

Cons:

-not much action, fixed is almost dead (i have played in a juicy 3/6 game, but that ran only one time i've been on)
-the deposit bonus clears pretty slowly (mine is 5000 points/$10)

I think the site is pretty awesome if you play 0,25/0,5 fixed, because there are some tables and you get a lot of points at this limit (3x as many as NL25 [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] ).
