The cashout thread shows several sites. I was on Sportsbook when I got the ban.

Yes, it will. Maybe not immediately, but probably within a week they will table limit you. Furthermore, the fact that you swap to a different skin to attempt to circumvent the ban will likely make you more likely to be further limited (<-- personal opinion).

Are players getting banned from micro stakes or is this typically a mid/high stakes thing?
Thanks

The crappy thing is I was only playing $25 6max games and only won around 100bi before getting limited. I had never even played cash games before and was just on a lucky heater. Kind of bull**** to get a lucky streak and get banned bc of it.

Is everyone restricted to 4 tables currently? Or are there different levels of restrictions?

There are different levels of retrictions. I only very rarely play more than 4 tables. I don't think that I've been retricted at all.

Restrictions are eased at times, without any interaction from the player or affiliate intervention. I've seen it happen to others, and my own personal account (I'm 4 table limited btw).

I bought a Galaxy Tab 4 yesterday and played on carbon with it some last night. Under tablet and desktop mode players' actions would stick. So the blinds always said "post bb" or "post sb". Then when first to act made an action their text would stick also. This made it so that i could only see players' stacks before the hand started or before they act. I switched it to mobile mode and it worked fine except the sounds would either work perfectly or not work at all (yes sounds are enabled). I plan on playing quite a bit on the new tablet so i really want to get this fixed. Anyone know whats up? Thanks in advance!

Beware of Carbon Cash Game Challenge yesterday I played 381 raked hands at $0.50/$1.00 and their leaderboard and customer support says I played 362 hands screwing me out of 1st place.

I E-Mailed them my Poker Tracker screenshot clearly showing I played more than 362 raked hands and their joke customer support says my "third party tracking software is invalid".

Incorrect leaderboard :

I get that it's annoying, but wouldn't it be quite likely that the #1 dude still played more raked hands than you?

I've seen 1 player relentlessly pile on others at a table about their ROI or to look his up. What he fails to realize is, his constant berating of others provides a bad playing experience for many. And, with the site becoming more rec-friendly, barring OPR due to player complaints regarding misuse of stats, would be par for course. And follows along with the earlier barring of Sharkscope. Just my guess.

Another thought. Just noticed that the last 120 days that OPR tracked Carbon, there were only slightly more than 7200 players. I don't ever recall seeing such a low 120 day #. Not something to be proud of.

They ban or table limit players who win too much. If you don't want risk being banned, make sure you don't win at the games.

Obviously, there are other reasons it's possible to get banned for, but banning or table limiting winner players is what people are usually talking about in the thread.
