 Rakeback is returning to the Merge Network on June 1st, 2012 along with a new $100,000 Race for Riches.
A ton of great changes coming to Carbon Poker, Aced Poker, RPM Poker and Pokerview on June 1st as the Merge Network has announced they are bringing back the long missed 35% rakeback rate for new players. In addition Carbon Poker is rolling out a massive $100,000 Rake Race in addition to their other exclusive promotions with Rakeback Nation. Not only that but Carbon Poker has announced the release of the new Merge Poker client 6.0 sometime in June.
Carbon Poker Rakeback
Starting June 1st, all new players who sign up at Carbon Poker through Rakeback Nation will receive a 35% Rakeback rate. If you already have an account at Carbon Poker you will have the option of switching to Rakeback by contacting support@carbonpoker.ag at which point your account will be reviewed and a decision will be made on the switch within 24-48 hours. This offer is valid for other Merge Network sites such as RPM Poker, Aced Poker and Pokerview.
As was the case when Merge previously offered rakeback, the the 60 day rule applies. This means that as a player if you have generated any gaming revenue on another site currently operating on the Merge Network within the last 60 days you will not be able to get rakeback on another site. For instance if you have been playing on RPM Poker within 60 days, and sign up for rakeback at Carbon Poker, you will be denied a rakeback account. However if any Merge Network account you have has been dormant for more than 60 days, you will be able to sign up at Carbon Poker or the Merge Network site of your choice.
Carbon Poker $100k Rags to Riches Race
 Four chances to win big in the Carbon Poker with the $100,000 Race to Riches rake race starting in June. Each week a $25,000 rake race will run rewarding the top 400 rakers with $2000 going to first place. You can also earn multiplier tournament bonus points if you play in certain scheduled tournaments throughout the month which will increase your rankings in the rake race.
