So, the 100k survivor pool has over 12,000 entries, I'm estimating that the prize pool is somewhere around $200k... I haven't been able to find anything on what Merge is going to do with all the money > 100k, are they just going to pocket it?

I don't mean to give bad info because I didn't join the survivor pool this year but I remember in years past they discounted multiple entries. Meaning each entry isn't the full price if you entered several times.

As for what they do with all the money >$100k. They probably keep it honestly.

The prize pool is going to be close to 200k even with discounted entries.

OPR now no longer shows player's overall statistics for Carbon :/

It just shows up like this, though year-by-year ROI/total games still show at the top.

First Pocketfives stops tracking cashes, now OPR does this, I wonder what is next.

What is the significance of this?

Actually OPR stopped tracking in Nov. of last year. No one has any stats for 2016. The significance for me and probably others was to track my results and see if my opponents were good regs, bad regs, or fish. I would imagine players being berated at the tables about their results had some impact on Merge stopping Sharkscope, OPR, and now Pocket 5s from tracking its tournaments any more.

Look at the very bottom of the screenshot, guys.

In the past it at least showed Total Cashes, Profit, ROI, ABI, ITM/Played statistics for the time OPR tracked Merge, even after tourneys were no longer tracked. Just recently it has disappeared and only zeros show up for each statistic even though I selected "Full Tracking". Essentially, player's MTT stats have been "wiped out"

Im having a horrible time with coinbase to buy bitcoin apparently because I live in an apartment I have to try and solve a rubix cube to get my address approved so frustrating.

Anyone else know of a way to get bitcoin onto carbon besides coinbase then blockchain.


I have a blockchain account set up as well. Can you buy it from people for a small fee or is there another reputable site to get it from?

Everything shows up as usual for me. Check that your poker site is set for Carbon poker.

Received an answer about what Merge is gonna do with the 100k+ extra has from these survivor pools...

"Thank you for contacting us.

Please be advised that money from the entries to our Survivor Pools are used to cover the grand prize, free bets and casino bonuses offered by the contests, anything left are profits for our site."

That absolutely blows my ****ing mind. Just taking 100k+ and putting in in their pockets. Insane.

Did Merge ever bring back the new account section for ROW or are they still not accepting new customers from anywhere?

Is there a reason why the Promotions challenges pays out way more for the SnG leaderboard than for the cash game leaderboard? Prizes seem to be a lot more for Sng Leaderboard and although I don't play any Sngs I do check the lobby sometimes and don't see many games running. I imagine I am missing something and these games run more than I think?

Even still - $750 seems like a very good rakeback % for first place when there doesn't seem to be a ton of sng volume on the site.

Dear XXX,

We notice you performed a willing transfer of funds to player "spidey80". Therefore, we require you to explain the nature of your relationship with this customer by responding to this e-mail.

What the F???? I have replied 5 times since then saying what the F are you talking about have I been hacked? No replies from Carbon going on 24 hours. You can't even transfer money to another player on there and I don't know who the F Spidey80 is do any of you? I have been playing on here for 5 years Winningly and you all should know me. What do they think I was throwing hands to this putz?? I am locked out and cant log in but I can log in to sportsbook. Anyone else ever have this problem?

I'm a cash game grinder but like to donk around the low buyin HU SNGs for fun. Seems hard to get more than a few games in at the $7 level or below and no one ever accepts my rematch requests. Been a while since I've played em but doesn't sound like it's changed much.

$15 Omaha HL sitngo fill alot. I know I dominate them. As for rakebacks I haven't received one in 5 years and I play alot of sitngos. The cash game rake is a joke as well. The percentage is higher than any other site.

Yes. Same happened to me when they banned UK players and a UK player was spewing off to everyone. They took my winnings back.
