We 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

XWINK: I’m so tilted it’s not even funny

XWINK: I’m on super tilt rite now

XWINK: can you hurry up and take my roll

XWINK: it’s taking forever

jungleman12: well

jungleman12: we can do 4 tables

XWINK: kk

XWINK: i hope u bust me in less than 1 hour

This article is going to be a bit off our usual poker player related topic of poker news, current promotions and bonuses so if that’s what you are after please give this post a skip on the other hand if you own a website, forum or blog or plan on creating your own someday then give it a quick read.

Ok, so you own your own website or blog and blog regularly, this usually means you get visitors to your site, these visitors can be valuable to any “webmaster” as a source of revenue, one must then choose what to fill the site with to earn some cash for your hard work and efforts.

Most aspiring webmasters opt for an Amazon affiliate shopping cart or the all time favorite Google ads then furnish the entire site with them, sure some succeed but the majority don’t as there simply are too many others doing the same thing, sure it may also be true that poker may not relate to your site theme but the rewards certainly outweigh the risks in at least giving poker a go on your site.

In general the major advantage to adding poker affiliate programs is the bottom line; they pay pretty well, certainly much better than Google ads.
Instead of getting your couple of cents for all the traffic you are getting, being a poker affiliate is similar to selling amazon goods in that you get paid a commission percentage or a fixed amount when a poker player that you referred goes on to deposit at one of your rooms.
