Carbon Poker - No Pale Imitation
In early 2007, the Poker.com online poker room changed its name to Carbon Poker. It became the first poker site in the newly created Merge network and has made a promising journey since its beginnings.
At this writing, around ten sites have joined the Merge network, and several are on their way in. By continued efforts to close new partnerships, Merge currently grows faster than most other networks in the industry.
Maybe the best poker software
Merge Gaming Network is still run by the same management and staff as its previous network. They obviously know what they're doing. Along a number of other strong assets, the Merge poker software is very popular among the players. Actually it's often mentioned as one of the best on the market.
Although Poker.com was a great domain name, it involved some problems when it came to marketing and advertising of real money gambling. With the new Carbon Poker brand plus the well-tried .net strategy, much more advertising is available in conventional media. In this way, they can also make the most of the precious television exposure that the site's pro players create by playing the big live poker tournaments.
Reliable operator in online gaming
Carbon Poker and Merge Gaming are regulated by the Kahnawake gaming commission, a major gaming regulator operating from the Mohawk territory of Kahnawake (which means "man eaters"), located in Toronto, Canada.
The Poker.com poker room still exists, in order to accommodate their existing players from before the name change. But the site offers the exact same tables as Carbon Poker, and it doesn't accept any new player accounts.
