I decided I'm only going to play PO freerolls on Carbon for awhile and let a br build itself. I just don't feel like I have an edge on the games I want to play there.

Well for sure the PO games are nice to build a BR. GL to you.
That's what I've been doing on Carbon, Bovada, and Lock. It feels good though when you meet your goal to start playing bigger stuff.
good luck and what games were you looking to play that you don't think you have an edge?
its a waste of time to build br at merge. you cant get your money anyways.
my sentiments exactly that is why i dont deposit and try so hard to build bankrollQuote:

Oh by the way, if you are not already approved for withdraws, go ahead and get approved and verified by sending ID and a bill so when it is time for you to withdraw, it is an easy painless process. Lock is the room behind on payments.Quote:

i have personally withdrawn from Carbon and had no problems.!! yes it did take about 5-8 weeks!! but i did get it!!
I also cashed out a lil over a month ago it took me 7 weeks to receive the funds but I did get paid.
2 months is such a long time, it should be 10 days like bcp.
I've known quite a few people to get money from Carbon, granted, it took longer than they wanted, but I think getting it at all was the important part.
well good to hear getting the money was type of bank was the check drawn on was it canadian
It is VERY hard to make money online these days, tot he point of making a living. I think trying to be a sole- tourney player is alot of people's problem. I think the best way to play / earn at poker is playing the cash tables and freerolling tourneys and satellites with your VIP points. BUT if you are gonna go the ONLY tourney route (which many are trying) stick with the 2% BR rule, and play satty after satty after satty until you satty into a big tourney and "get lucky". I, myself have never even stuck to this plan, Im great at giving advice n not adhering myself.
I do also think one should play a GOOD revolution skin, and a winning skin, as they allow for p2p Xfer, but merge certainly has the most action. i get impatient and always cancel my carbon withdrawals ( again, dont do this!)
I don't believe so because the bank kept the deposit amount the exact amount of the check, or they would have converted to the US dollar or not accept it at all like Lock Poker.Quote:

If you feel that you don't have an edge, one of the best things you can do is take a short break, and come back refreshed and ready to go. Clear your head, relax, and come back when you're ready. Just my 2 cents though, if its worth that much
I just received a check from Carbon from an old account..so unless they stopped paying people in the last 3 weeks I'm pretty sure all is well.Quote:

Merge is the only software that I can stand looking at for hours...how is BCP now?
lots of stories, who knows what to think anymore...I like BCP
Again, this isn't about being able to get my money or not, it's about an edge, which I lack on Merge; however, I am improving by the day and will return (hopefully within a few months) as a better, more experienced player and a bigger bankroll from PO.
Also, I am continuing to bank money on Lock and Bovada. I will continue to play on those sites while I give Merge a rest.
well, good luck to everyone on carbon freerolls
I've got about equal bankrolls on Lock, Bovada, and Merge, and I have noticed I'm struggling more to build my Merge BR.Quote:

Just go to Pokerstars, you won't ever have this problems ;)
I have had a similar experience. Merge's competition is tougher and their rakes are higher, so that would justify this.Quote:

Goodluck bro hope you build it up quick and make something out of it. Free money always helps things go smoother
Which US poker site do u guys feel is the best overall Lock, Carbon, Betonline, ACR, or Juicy stakes???
also do u guys think that 888 poker or pokerstars will ever allow US players to ever play their again?
the poker owned free rolls are definately the way to go!
