Can get one at WalMart.



No they don't. I checked wallmart, target, walgreens, ect. All the cards say US at the bottom and on the back it has the name of a US bank. In fact I've never seen any card that says International on it other than phone cards. I'm starting to think there's no such card. I even went on the Visa web site and nothing comes up when you put in International gift card. The only thing I found that might work is Visa travel money. Has anyone ever used this before?

support at lock sent me the link and i haven't deposited before



I talked to 3 people on live support and they all said the same thing "you have to make a deposite first". Maybe I'll try Lock.

FWIW...I just (15 minutes ago) purchased 2 Visa International cards at Walgreens in Idaho to send as gifts to Australia. I can verify that they exist.

I've look all over and none of the cards say international. Does it say it on the front of the card?

Unfortunately, I have already mailed them off...but from the front they look the same, you have to read the back to find the International label. They were on the top shelf of the card rack at our Walgreens.

Yeah, I'm confused on the rakeback. I'm with raketherake and there's a code to use for deposits, but I don't see one to link up your account like a referral. Does Carbon actually have affiliate rakeback or is it just automatic?



Use: http://rakeback.deucescracked.com/rakeback/carbon-poker.html

And get a free DC subscription at the same time!

So what if one signed up for Carbon, but has not deposited yet, does it matter if debating using the DC code or the carbon rake code? Can I still go the DC route since signing up doesnt pick a code yet?
How does one get the money the DC route? I know the CPR version is put in your CB account every day. If anyone knows that would be great.



Fill out a support ticket and DC rakeback support will get back to you:

Can you quickly explain how the free subscription thing works if someone signs up for one of the Merge skins via DC?

Once you rake $50 in MGR over 30 days, you will get a free streaming-only access to DC videos.

At $500 MGR per 30 days you will get full premium download access, details can be found here: http://www.deucescracked.com/mydc/offers

Let me know if there are any other questions.

Here is another link explaining the programs: http://www.deucescracked.com/promotions/get-deucescracked-for-free

Would these international Visa cards be a deposit as "card payments?"

I just tried depositing with my credit/debit cards in usemywallet and both declined. Anyone have this same issue?

Also, is the cash transfer deposit option Western Union? Anyone know the pros and cons of using Western Union over the other ways of depositing?

Well after some time on the phone with WU and Carbon Support I got a little bit of money on.
I have only short stacked 10nl and played .02/.04 so far with a small BR, but it seems like lots of fish on there at that level.

Tables are 9 handed.

Tourney and SNG action is pretty bad, a vast majority of low stakes SNG's that go are DoN.



Just starting to try to make a move, but here's the info I'm gathering re: CARBON

Their site has a full page on ways to DEPOSIT, but says very little or nothing about how to WITHDRAW??

They sent a DC member a bad check? (that can't be a good sign)

They have ONLY 9 player tables? I like playing 6-max SNGs....so they don't offer those at any level?


I'd appreciate anyone's comments, don't want to ship any $$$ without a little better understanding Thanx
