LADERA RANCH, CA, August 14, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- It's official: Carbon Poker is returning in the USA!
This is undoubtedly amazing news for Americans who have been scrambling for weeks now to find a quality online poker site that is trusted, licensed and backed by a reputable gaming platform. Since coming into the market several years ago on the Merge Network, Carbon Poker was already one of the rising stars of the industry. Great software, unique graphics and features, as well as some of the softest competition out there got many players hooked on the site. Traffic, however, grew exponentially after an April 15th indictment of the owners and CEO's of PokerStars, Full Tilt and UB/Absolute, collectively known as the "Big 3" in the poker world.
After skyrocketing to the top 10 most trafficked websites in the world, Carbon Poker made a surprise announcement that they would be leaving the USA market for a brief period while they worked on their mounting customer service problems and cashout issues. After making the move official on June 1st, affiliate managers for all Merge skins went on a public PR spree to vow that they would be back within several months, something not even the most optimistic of poker players could have believed given the current legal climate of online poker.
However, after just being out of the market for just about 2 months, Carbon Poker reps have been quietly making it known that they're aiming for an August 15th comeback to the U.S. - with August 31st being the LATEST date that the site will be operating again in the states. It has been well documented by several unnamed Merge sources that Carbon has ramped up their customer service department to handle increased support loads and have also improved their processing and cashout timeframes, offering better options and decreased wait times on withdrawals.

Cliffnotes:
- Merge still doesn't know how to publish a proper press release
- Blackout period for new US sign ups will supposedly end no later than August 31st 2011
- Better support and cashier yet to be determined ...
