First of all, why are you singling me out? There are a handful who deliberately stall to only min cash. I on other hand am a mass multi tabler 10-20 across 3 us networks. Plus I am a mixed game player who also play nlhe (look up my stats). My play used to be very slow on Carbon until someone complained to support and they sent me a warning back in September. So now I have to proritize and focus on Carbon before all the other networks I play on. This really stinks because there are so many others who do it deliberately. Try mass multi-tabling 10-20 tables playing HORSE, STUD8, RAZZ, PLO8, PLO, NLHE across 3 networks all at the same time (plus I chat and use the emoticons) and see how often you may play very slow and/or time out?

Yes I am guilty for late registering at the last minute, because these re-entry tournaments will bleed your bankroll dry. I'm an ex FTP SNG player so ICM is my specialty and I have been capitalizing on these structures using it for low risk profit with less time invested which increases my hourly and it has been very +EV for me. Plus, in addition to min cashes, I have 1000's Final tables and 100's of Win's. It even works on WPN and even late registering on Bovada as well with how long these late registrations go on.

It just isn't fair that I was warned by Carbon and I complied back in September. Then after, I told them to look at these other players and warn them as well, however nothing was done to them as they are continuously timing out to only min cash and then even timing out after the min cash for pennies extra. Anyone here can go and watch and see this going on and watch me as well and see that my play is not as slow compared to these others who literally use up the whole time bank and time out every single hand. It mostly happens in the 3000 chippers tournaments. Some names off the top of my head......

diewarzu sp?
amadojunior sp?
ilovemykids4 sp?
aamikekk sp?
moreacesnow22 sp?
lopinout sp?
thegooddoctor sp?
kilmercoyotes sp?
etc.

There are many more. These are the ones I see most often. Would anyone care to add?

ps. Maybe if others email Carbons poker security they may get warned as well? They definitely won't listen to me
This is laughable, I play with you all the time and you literally reg last second and let the time bank expire in order to min cash. Yes you are not alone Poppajoe is another that comes to mind but you actually trying to act like you're spamming some exploit is funny. Lets call a spade a spade. Hopefully merge steps up (unlikely) and fixes this. It's annoying as f*ck to play at your table.

Well I live in Canada and have travelled the country and have also travelled through the states. To say Canada has a lower standard of living is completely inaccurate. I am not saying it is better the the U.S. as each country has its strong points and its weak points. By the way have you ever been to the great white north? If I had to choose between the two I would of course choose Canada but I am biased. Personally I feel the U.S. is on the verge of collapse. The racial and economic divides are growing farther and farther apart and I see a huge uprising for your country in the near future. I don't expect you to agree with what I have said but trust me the much of the world shares similar views to mine.

You're arguing about a post that was made almost 3 months ago. That poster hasn't logged on to 2+2 in the past 2 months. You're involved in a heated debate with an empty seat.

what's going on with 200nl cash games tonight?? zero full ring 200nl going (usually 4-8 tables), one half-empty 200nl six max table going (usually 5-15). Lots of 50 and 100 tables going as usual, strange.

Yay! My first post! I hope it's as noob as I think it will be. I have been playing online play moniez for years now and looking to transition to Carbon for real moniez, as I am in the USA. I see they have an odds calculator though. My question is, will the tables be real tough when everyone has all that info on every hand? Thanks 2+2 Gurus.

No. if anything a HUD would be a lot more helpful than an odds calc. but still All games are beatable and especially on Merge where people are being kicked off for winning too much.

it goes into win odds, pot odds, ev, starting hands based on ev, outs, player stats a play profile, and an HUD. i feel like if i had all that info live i would crush all day every day.

how can all that info be available to every player and not make for tough games?

This hasn't been reported in quite a few months.

what info exactly?

Sweet, thanks! Everything I've read kinda hints or straight out says that math isn't everything. I can see how when everyone has the math handed to them, other skills can make or break it.

Highstar, without math you certainly are not playing up to your potential. Not much way around that.
What has worked recently for getting money on Carbon in NYC?

Grand Prix rake race. Do you move up the leaderboard by # of hands played at that stake, or by the $ amount of rake you paid?

If they use points to track (as w/ 2-a-days) then it would be be amount of rake paid then right?

Of course the leaderboard isn't up yet like the promo says it will be.

I didn't say they left, I said they all still play on Stars. You don't have to move to do that.

Update:

Grand prix leaderboard is up now.: But they don't list account numbers so you have now idea who you are racing against. WTF

Anyone else get a software update today, that seems to have broken the Carbon Odds Calculator? (checked the last 4 pages, saw some discussion about huds, but nothing relating to breakage of the official one)

Santa Cruz......The seat is now occupied.

Kiddo.....Look up my stats and see all the differtent games I play. I primarily play ALL the turbos, rebuys, and mixed games now. Explain to me how it is even possible to late reg and stall and time out every hand to a min cash? This is not possible to do and min cash in there formats. I may time out once every 10K hands and that's it. I rarely even use my timebank or the whole initial time allotted. You must be looking at a few isolated instances.

I remember your Screen name from past play and how you would spew hate to me in chat after I Ko'ed you after a bad beat or good beat or whatever. Haters are gonna hate!

I would like to see some feedback from other posters here who have played with me since September (after I was warned about my slow play) and have the same feelings as you do. There are many I am sure of that would strongly disagree with you (I assume...unless it's another hater) I play high Volume daily and I average 50 Final tables a month. Explain to me how I am only min cashing?
