Special Features
- Carbon Poker allows you to win money even if you're losing. This special feature is called the Bad Beat Bonanza. Taking a beat bad and losing a monster hand means winning hundreds of thousands of dollars!
- There is also a SNG Leaderboard, which allows you to win prizes and money. You receive points according to the table's buy-in and can win over $10,000 in cash each month and an extra $2,000 for leading the board!
- Another great feature is the MTT (Multi Table Tournament) Leaderboard, in which you are awarded points for every multi-table tournament you play throughout the month. Finishing in the Leaderboard's top 100 places means entry into the Leaderboard Grand Final with a major prize for the winner!
- Ever got a bonus for having the best hand in poker? Now you can win money with this hand in the poker tables and even receive a bonus for it. Carbon Poker introduces the Royal Flush bonus, which means you receive 100 x the big blind for scoring a Royal Flush on any real money Texas Hold'em ring game. Just think about it, scoring a Royal Flush in a $5/$10 Texas Hold'em room means you win $1,000 in cash!
- Perhaps the best feature of Carbon Poker is the Time Bank feature. Playing on-line poker means thinking fast. There is not much time to think and often you have to decide fast about your hand. With this special feature you can accumulate time from the previous hands you played quicker than the usual, and when you have a tough call, you can use the time you've stored to your disposal.
- Not sure about your hand, but don't want to fold it away? This is the feature for you. Carbon Poker Deal It Twice feature will give two All-In players the option to deal the Turn and River cards twice! So nothing is final until the cards are dealt twice, giving the less confident player an option to win the entire hand.
- Earn competition points by playing poker and use these points for treating yourself to different merchandise or enter poker tournaments and events.
- How about another cool feature - the Rabbit Hunt? Ever wondered what cards could have come out in the Turn or River? Now you can! With the Rabbit Hunt feature you can see the cards that could have been dealt after you folded early and then truly know if you've made the right call in your hand.
- Expose One Card is another great feature where you can show your opponent only one of your pocket cards and keep him guessing for the second. This can give you a great psychological advantage that might influence your opponent's decision and shift the game in your favor!
- Player Tag is another brilliant feature you can find here, which allows you to take notes about players you play against and keep track of their playing style and strategies. In this way it's easier to study the player's patterns and use their weaknesses to win money.
