How does Carbon Poker Survive ?

[qcnb]

You can look at EVERY SINGLE guaranteed tournament, and there is an overlay ! There is not a single tournament on which they make money ! How the hell do they manage to stay up and running ???

Am I missing something ?
Do they have any affiliated "companies" which make enough money to cover their losses ?
WTH ???

might stay in business because they have a sportsbook and casino if you play on the casino you are going to lose in the long run

Plus they take the money that is deposited and invest it to make more money

i think carbon and almost all the sites try be a pokerstars in a long run but 90% die trying.hope before they forclose i get a cashout.

All poker sites dont necessarily lose money if the tourney does not meet the guarantee

21500 GTD Needs with a $200 buyin only needs 100 Entrants to make the guarantee. But in theory the site doesn't need to hit the guarantee. There is $15 in dead money going directly to the site every time. Just like with every tourney there is rake. Also most online poker sites make way more with rake than they do with tourneys

Cash tables + SNGs + your deposited money is "invested" + Casino + Sportsbook + advertising + MTTs hitting Guaranteeds + other things.

1st place is normally a company person winning it anyways so they do good.

I am sure they are making money. They have been around for a while and would have folded already if they could not survive.
