WTF Is Caribbean Stud Poker?

Posted By : CarbonPoker May 28th, 2009

In our on-going effort of poker education, we’re hitting Caribbean Stud this week. It’s got enticing payouts, interesting rules and is the perfect time killer when you’re waiting for that next tournament to start.

You can check out the rules of Caribbean Stud, but here are the basics:

5-card poker game
Single deck is used
You play against the dealer
You must Ante, then decide if you want to bet against the dealer (double ante)
Dealer must qualify
Jackpot bet is separate (Jackpot pays, even if dealer beats your hand)

It’s a tough-ish game to describe, but an easy game to play. Get out there and give it a try while you’re waiting for the Guaranteed $50K next Sunday.

If you’ve seen our Twitter Feed or watch the ticker at the top of pretty much every CarbonPoker page, you know that our various Caribbean Stud jackpots are growing by the minute.

As of the time of writing, the $1 Table Jackpot is at $22K+ and the $5 Table Jackpot is at $53K+. To me, that’s worthwhile to lay the bonus every hand.

Good Luck on the tables.

Best Value Guaranteed Poker Tournament Online

Posted By : CarbonPoker May 28th, 2009


As you probably know, every Sunday CarbonPoker runs a $50,000 Guaranteed Tournament. It goes down at 15:00 Carbon Time each week.

The Buy In will run you $109 (or one of our conveniently valued $109 coupons) and this will give you a great shot at the $50K.

Because it’s guaranteed money, you can expect some tremendous value here. Ie: if 5 people or 500 show up, that’s the number. The payout does not change.

Over the past few weeks we’ve seen a lot of interest in the tourney. Be sure to get in before everybody online knows about it.

Keep your eyes and ears peeled for more bonuses and site news on this Memorial Day Weekend at CarbonPoker.

The Black Army Marches

Posted By : CarbonPoker May 20th, 2009

The black army is ready to march on the 2009 WSOP clad in their black diamond hoodies and assorted Carbon merchandise, they will undoubtedly be a force to be recognized at this years WSOP. In total there are 11 players who will be representing CarbonPoker and each will need all the luck they can get as the field’s will be tough. Two will have a slightly easier task as they have seats the the $1,000 No Limit Holdem event where the size of the field is surely to be less than that of the $10,000 Main Event.

Best of luck to all those players going, well done on earning your way there, its a huge achievement in its self!

Weekend Tournament Update at Carbon

Posted By : CarbonPoker May 20th, 2009


As usual, CarbonPoker has another stacked weekend of tourneys, events and possible jackpots. Here’s a quick look at the highlights of what we’vegot on tap for Saturday and Sunday:

PicClub Pro’s Sunday $109 Bounty – May 17 – 21:30 — You know the drill by now… Beat a Pro’s ass and collect the bounty. The only thing better than knocking a player out is when that player is a pro. Get into this and take on the likes of TJ Cloutier, James Worth and Kenna James.

$50K Guaranteed Sunday – May 17 – 15:00 — This bad boy is guaranteed every Sunday (the name pretty much says it all), and with the field it’s got the best value of any tournament online. This is your shot to pull a massive win against a minimal pool of players.

Don’t forget about our ChipStars promo and really cash in this May. It’s not too late to get in on more games and work your way into more bonuses, VIP points and General Carbon awesomeness.
