Changes Afoot at Poker.com

The news has spread that Poker.com has closed it's doors to new players, however this doesn't mean that there will be no more poker.com!

As an old customer you now have the choice to play on the old site or download their new site Carbonpoker.com.

It is believed that it has been done to help with advertising revenue.

But still at this time there is still some uncertainity amongst the poker community, as at the momement some questions haven't bee answered by the staff at Poker.com, something that is very unusual.

Here is the quote from the poker.com forum by Liam - Poker Room Manager

Hi Everyone,

You may have noticed our new brand, CarbonPoker.com being promoted on the Poker.com website and other poker portals.

Carbon Poker is owned and operated by the same software company that designed your old poker room and will continue to provide all of the same features and services that you have come to know and trust.

CarbonPoker.com is the very first brand on the new Merge Gaming Network and we envisage that this network will provide our loyal players with one of the largest and most active community orientated poker networks in the world. We aim to keep growing the number of active players online, because everybody knows that more players equals bigger prize pools!

Using the carbonpoker brand with a '.net' strategy will also enable us to advertise more in mainstream media and maximize any valuable television coverage our players attract at live tournaments.

From an operational perspective your player account will continue to be managed by many of the same faces that you have always dealt with and as always all player account funds are 100% safe and secure.

We hope you are as excited about the new network as we are, and we thank you for your valued support in the past and in the future.

Regards,

Liam
