Carbon Poker is a reasonably new poker site but is expanding rapidly thanks to their unprecedented 200% sign-up offer, great promotions and really nice software – expect this site to make a significant move up the popularity list in 2008.

The selection of Omaha tables is smaller than many others, this is made up for by the loose players – often 75% of players seeing each flop (smell the potential for profit anyone??!?).

Bonuses And Promotions

The 100% bonus on your initial deposit up to $500 that Carbon Poker offer is one of the best on the web, includes entry to $1000 first depositors freeroll. This clears in $10 increments as you collect points, and is not as difficult to clear as many other poker sites. Initial depositors also get to play the $3,500 freeroll for 14 days after depositing.

 

Carbon keep their players well rewarded with a number of ongoing promotions. These vary month-on-month (it is well worth keeping an eye on their website for the latest offers). Rewards are often in the form of special jackpots, double prize SNGs and value-added tournaments.

Omaha Cash Game Selection

PLO and PLO8 are available at Carbon Poker in addition to fixed-limit Omaha poker games. For the pot-limit games the blind levels range from 10c / 25c up to $2 / $4, the busiest tables are at the lower end of this range. For the Omaha hi-Lo cash games the blind levels are available with a bigger gap – for example $1 / $3 games can be found. Both 6-max and 9-max tables are available.

 

The fixed limit games again start with 10c / 25c blinds – this time going up to $30 / $60. Once again you will only find action at the higher stakes at the peak ours of US evenings and weekends. Heads-up Omaha cash games are available in all of the formats covered.

Omaha Tournaments + Sit N Go Selection

There are a selection of Omaha tournaments available at Carbon Poker, most are in the lower buy-in range of $3 to $10. Pot Limit Omaha is featured as are mixed game tournaments including Omaha Poker. These include HORSE and ‘HO’ (Holdem / Omaha) which is available with both fixed limit and pot-limit betting.

 

Unusually the SNG selection includes No-Limit Omaha – in addition to the more popular pot-limit betting structure. Fixed-limit Omaha games are also available in SNG format. There are a wide range of buy-ins available for these games which are surprisingly numerous, especially at peak times. Heads-up Omaha SNGs are also available.

Carbon Poker Omaha Review – Final Toughts

We fully expect Carbon to be the ‘big hit’ for 2008 and beyond. The combination of great graphics, generous bonuses and promotions and loose opponents make this site stick out among US friendly poker rooms – and more than make up for the smaller table selection compared to some of the larger rivals.

 

Bonus code PLOPLANET will get you the maximum 200% up to $600 sign-up bonus.
