    IMPORTANT CARBON POKER UPDATE

    Carbon Poker have stopped accepting players from the United States.

    Neither Betonline or Americas Cardroom have an app and Bovada have entirely removed their online poker room. Thankfully Bovada Poker has been acquired by Ignition Casino, which looks and functions in exactly the same manner. The only difference between Ignition Poker and Bovada Poker is the logo. Ingition Poker welcomes real money players from the USA and is compatible with iPad, iPhone, Windows Phone and Android.

    Real money poker players in the U.S. have had to wait a long time to get to play Texas Hold'em Cash Games on their iOS or Android phones and tablets. Thankfully the wait is now over and Carbon Poker have finally given their real money players a chance to try out their much hyped Texas Hold'em mobile client.

    The app hasn't been officially released yet and is still in beta testing but Carbon Poker are asking players to install the app and give them feedback on what they've got wrong or right by following these simple download and install instructions.

    1. Obviously you'll need an account so sign-up at Carbon Poker if you're not already a member.

    2. This is a web app so you just need to browse to the Carbon site No need to download any software.

    3. Login and start playing. The app currently has a bug reporting section so please CP of any issues.

    We'd love to know what you think of the new app so please let us know the good and the bad.

    Worked pretty well on my Samsung although it still need a bit of work. Texas Hold'em ring games are great but I can't wait until they also add Sit & Go tournaments.

    Most of the feedback from Android users has been pretty positive. The app works fine on the HTC One, Samsung Galaxy S4, LG Electronics Optimus, Samsung Galaxy Note, Motorola Moto, Sony Xperia, Droid Razr, HTC Droid and Google Nexus 4. It may work better on certain types of browsers so users should try a few to see which one works best for Android.

    When are Carbon Poker going to feature it on their main website? Since they're the only mobile poker site that accepts United States players, I would have thought they'd be shouting it from the rooftops?

    Even though the apps works perfectly well when we used it on the LG Nexus 4, Samsung Galaxy S4, HTC One, Galaxy Note 2 and Galaxy Nexus, Carbon Poker are still testing it to make sure it works on the widest possible range of Android tablets and phones before they officially launch it. The Carbon Poker app already fully supports all iOS devices, including the iPhone and iPad.

    Carbon have now officially launched their mobile client which they claim will work on any device which will also be good news for Windows Phone or Blackberry users as well as iOS/Android gamers.

    Great news. Before Black Friday when all the USA poker rooms were closed, I used to make most of my money playing against fishy U.S. poker players. I can find plenty of soft competition and poker donkeys at the some of the other mobile sites but Carbon Poker is definitely the easiest place to increase my bankroll.

    Since lots of people probably got their first Android phone at Christmas, now is also a great time to take advantage of their $50 refer a friend bonus. All you need to do is get one of your friends to sign up and Carbon will give you a bonus worth 25% of their first deposit up to $50. Money for nothing!!!

    I've been playing at the Texas Hold'em cash tables for the last month and the app works great but is there any word yet on when they'll add tournaments? An option to play "Fast Fold" high speed poker would also be nice.

    High-speed poker is already available at Carbon if you want to play fast fold poker like Zoom at PokerStars and Rush at Full Tilt Poker.

    Both multi-table and Sit & Go tournaments are both in development and will be available shortly.

    I know that Carbon will never be able to get Apple to approve a real money poker app in the United States app store, but does anyone know if they will be developing a native poker app for Android phones and tablets that could downloaded from their website as an apk file?

    Since the Carbon Mobile Poker client has been so successful, I suspect that they are currently working on an apk native app version also.

    They are also continually updated and improving their web app. For instance, they've recently added Sit-N-Go's to their web app which means that United States poker players can finally play tournaments on Apple, Android or Windows/Nokia devices

    Carbon Poker may develop a native poker app for Android devices since you can install non Google Play apps on any android phone. I don't think they would every be foolish enough to develop an iPhone/iPad app for the iTunes App Store because they know Apple would never approve it in a million years. If you have a Windows Phone or iOS device I think you will need to play via their browser app for the foreseeable future.

    Are any of the other United States online poker rooms planning to release apps soon?

    does the carbon poker app let me play at more than one table at once on my smartphone?
     
  15. Sebastian

    Sebastian Administrator Staff Member

    No, none of the current US mobile poker sites currently support multi-tabling.

    i like the way the app allows you to check out the play at a table before you choose whether you take a seat. too many apps force players to randomly take a seat at a particular table.

    has anyone tried the bovada poker app for u.s. players? how does it measure up compare to the carbonpoker android app?

    The Bovada poker app is great for anyone living in the United States who wants to play fast fold poker on their phone. If you just want to play regular Texas Hold'em ring games or Sit & Go tournaments, Carbon Poker Mobile is still your best bet.

    the bovada poker app now also offers regular omaha and texas holdem cash games. hopefully sit and go tournaments will be added in the not too distant future.

    Many of the major mobile poker sites still only offer Texas Hold'em cash games so it's great to see someone add other poker variants like Omaha and Omaha Hi/Lo to their mobile software.
