No. They are the only two who seem to want to grow their MTT schedules right now. Chico Network has some small stakes, as does Full Flush and Horizon Network, but they are very small compared to Bovada and ACR's offerings. Though what they do run has good value given the easier competition and in some cases, frequent overlays.

fwiw I got a little nervous with Carbon as the games were kinda dying about a month ago so I cashed out. They came through and Fed Ex'd me $1500 check. So about a month and no problems.

i been playing on bovada which i hate because its too ****ing slow. it's tilting. I have a old laptop hooked up to a big monitor, but still when i played stars play money (i know lolme but their mixed games are fun and laggie and not bad if you are looking to get better) or carbon its fast as lighting. i wish i kept the grind up at carbon this last month. but i couldn't really be sure what was up. this was my first cash out with them.

Carbon has a micro OPS series starting Monday, May 9, with entries ranging from $0.66 to a $22 20K main event on Sunday, May 22.

So is Carbon still a good option for the merge network? I thought there were tons of problems with cashouts on the merge network. Also, are they now allowing deposit/withdraw via bitcoin?

Are there any options for low stakes limit holdem for players in the USA? I never see this game run on any of the major us sites. Not even mixed games such as horse run with any frequency.

Bovada and WPN, in that order, for game frequency. If you sit alone at a WPN table, as a new name, you'll likely spark up a game in a reasonable amount of time.

So sportsbook, poker and casino is wanted. It's a NEW US player signing up, my friend doesn't have a current account anywhere. Best options?

NEVERMIND MY FRIEND IS DUMB, I DID IT FOR HIM ON BOVADA

You could also have chosen BetOnline, Intertops, 5Dimes and had good all around gambling action.

Page 1 should be updated to reflect the creation of the Horizon network from a handful of networks together. Population is slowly rising and Intertops is a great US facing site.

They have not been created from a handful of networks, it is the new brand name of the former Cake / Revolution network.

I knew that but I thought they added a couple of other servers to their "family" of networks when they made the switch to the name Horizon. If not, my mistake but in either event - Page 1 should be updated to reflect this network's name change.

So ACR is best option for MTTs besides Bovada? I have a Carbon account not sure if they are any good or if related to ACR (is ACR on the Merge network?). Any promos/rakeback for ACR I should know about?

Has anybody left Bovada because of the software and found greener pastures elsewhere?

Carbon is a shell of its former self. From peak to current trough it is roughly 1/10th of the peak size. Carbon is on Merge Gaming Network.

Americas Cardroom is the flagship brand of the Winning Poker Network. WPN is currently 4x the size of Merge.

They have both promos and rakeback. You can try Google and/or the sponsored affiliate forum here on 2+2 for more information.

There is a thread in the acr page about a guy that couldn't cash out because he didn't rake enough. I'm thinking about joining acr and this is kinda confusing. How much do you have to rake in order to cash out? Is it each month? Number of hands? Percentage of the stakes you play? Just trying to understand. If I play for a month straight and didn't rake enough I can't cash out until I do so?

Can anyone help me understand? Thanks

In most cases the target is 15% of the amount of your deposit. In other words, if you deposit $1,000 and then play two MTTs and try to cash out your 1k, you won't be allowed. You'll need to rake $150 before you can cash out the deposited funds. This covers their cost of moving funds.

What about after your first cash out after your first deposit? Is it 15 percent of your balance? Still 15 percent of that original deposit?

Any time you deposit, you will need to rake ~15% before you can withdraw those deposited funds. There are no other restrictions. The policy, which exists in very similar forms on other US-friendly sites, is in place to cover the above average costs that US-friendly sites have to pay in processing costs.

I'm looking to add a site for PLO and Horizon looks interesting, I did not know this network even existed. I wouldn't say slowly rising though as it appears traffic has been mostly stagnant for 6 months according to PokerScout.

Certainly they are not leaving for BetOnline or Equity if software is important. Both use the same software and it is god awful. I guess I am too used to the post-BF poker landscape b/c Bovada's software actually seems pretty solid to me.

Sure you did. You've posted in the Intertops thread before.

Horizon = Revolution = Cake = Intertops/Juicy Stakes.

Is there a comprehensive list of INTERNET Nevada poker tournaments taking place Between now and August?

I'm just wondering what are the hottest internet tourneys during WSOP (ideally with a big prize pool), especially PLO and HE.

Thanks,

JJO
