I got pokerstars (pokerstars.com) working through wine. So if you already have wine working on your box, it may be a good fit. Its got a fairly large fanbase as well. Good luck to ya.

Pretty much, if its not written in java they don't release a windows version.
Something needs to be done about this though. We should start some sort of massive email campaign to these sites to get them to release a client for linux. Its in their best interest anyway.
I emailed UltimateBet.com a long time ago and got no response. Maybe if we all tell them we are forced to use one of their competitors(partypoker.com) because they lack a linux client we might get a response.

Redhatman,
Spamming/Advertising as you have done here is not tolerated on these forums. You have basically copy and pasted a line from a pokerroom.com spam on every every poker software related post you can fine.
Cease and desist or risk loosing privlages to this site.

Sorry guys. I should have read the rules more carefully. But pokerroom.com is a good site for linux users and you should still sign up without my referral code.

No problem, so long as we don't see anymore referal codes in the future then we can all move on and live happily ever after. |
