Carbon Poker was the first site on the newly formed Merge Gaming network, created from the player base of Poker.com. Since the Merge network allows U.S. players, network growth has been pretty fast. On top, Carbon Poker is doing everything in its power to attract players with some very nice promotions, very playable software and nice graphics.
For a new poker site on a relatively young network, Carbon Poker already has decent player volume. At any time, several hundred players are logged in and playing, with the most players active at European peak hours. Because a lot of the players are beginners, the skill level is pretty low at most games, making them profitable for skilled players. The most visited tables are Texas Hold'em, with viewed-flop percentages normally in the 40s or 50s. Real-money player statistics as of February 2009 show 500 ring-game players and 2,000 tournament players at peak hours.
