    I play at Carbon, it's on the Merge Network. It's probably the best for US players, lots of players, and your money is safe.

    The only problem is the withdrawals. They take anywhere from 4-6 weeks via check, and you can only take out $2500 at a time.

    I think you can also do W...U withdrawals, up to about $900, I think, once a week or so.

        No one knows for sure if your funds are safe.

        If you're going to play on any site from US you're going to wait for payouts, unless you play on the really small sites.

        I believe ** withdrawals are only available to a restricted number of players, although they are trying to make it available to everyone.

          Are you stuck on it not being a sportsbook? Americas Cardroom and True Poker are owned by Betcris/Bookmaker and have the fastest US payouts for online poker. Carbon Poker and other Merge skins are good too and only a bit slower. Lock has some issues with their takeover and Cake takes 4-5 months to pay people. Bodog/Bovada seem to be intentionally incompetent with their poker offering so I would suggest avoiding them too.
