instant play Poker games and mobile Poker appsWe have compiled a summary of which online poker rooms offer instant play poker versions of their software; it covers most of the poker games we offer on our site.

Instant Play Poker provides users with an alternate version of the poker room client that requires no download and permits them to play directly from a browser.

The main advantage of poker instant play software is that it supports far more operating systems than the standard poker client usually allows. Instant Play poker is playable from Mac’s, Linux and all versions of Windows OS directly from the player’s favorite browser.

There are some disadvantages of playing instant play poker in that usually the game lacks certain features found in the full downloadable client versions of the software.

Due to the recent surge in popularity of poker mobile apps, we have included mobile poker apps to the list too, we believe in time the mobile poker app market will become a major player in the poker industry especially seeing that latest smart phones with Android OS / IPhone OS can run flash based poker games.

Several poker rooms like Full Tilt Poker have already identified this ever increasing mobile poker trend and are getting in early on the poker mobile action with the launch of their Rush Full Tilt Poker mobile app, but others like PokerStars are sadly left behind. Come on PokerStars get your act together, where is your PokerStars Mobile game or even a PokerStars instant play version?

Portability and accessibility are the major driving forces behind the demand but on the other hand playability seems somewhat dampered at this early stage.

Imagine depositing $4000 at FullTilt Poker then turning it into $2 million in only four days, playing against top pro’s at Full Tilt in including Phil Ivey, Patrik Antonius, and Andreas Torbergsen, well that’s what happened to the new mystery man of poker XWINK playing high-stakes $300/$600 and $500/$1000 PLO.

XWINK’s luck ran short as the following day he dropped $1.2 of his profits while playing wild games against the likes of “Jungleman12” Daniel Cates and “NoPasaran”. Even after a huge $1.2 million loss XWINK is still up over $600k for the month of March, pretty good by anyone’s standards of which it has been reported that $500k has been submitted for cashout.

In a chat with Jungleman12 during his loosing session, XWINK admitted that he was on tilt saying:

XWINK: I’ll give u a good tip

XWINK: don’t play when you’re tilted

jungleman12: yep true
