Looking for a good poker game online

[FisionChips]

Does anyone know of a good gaming site with Poker or a Poker game that doesn't come bundled with malware?

http://www.pogo.com You can win loads for free too. Look under the Token Casino section. You will need to create an account, its free.

Thanks Mike. This is for a friend who is really keen on Poker - last game he installed came bundled with trouble. lol

This is online and requires Sun Java /MS Java. No nasties here, and there are some fun games too.

I just signed up at Pogo and played a solitaire game there - it's cool. Thanks.

Is partypoker also malware/spyware free?

[zimagirl79]

As far as I can tell it is malware free. I've had it installed for about a month now with no problems. It's live play with other people, shows each player as a character at a table. We use play money so we can keep refilling our pockets when we lose it all. My husband is addicted to it I swear!

I first found it after watching poker on television - big thing these days. You register and download it, then get a validation code in an email. They do occasionally ask us to provide personal information such as name and address, but there is a cancel button at the bottom of the window and when we click it the request goes away so they don't get that info. They do have our email addresses which were needed to send the validation codes.

It's simple enough that my husband who is computer illiterate can do it. He loves it because he has thousands of tables to play on. They go from tiny bets of nickles and dimes to the big tables where they play with no limits.

I stay away from these gambling sites, lol. Good that you don't have to play for real money. There was a story on the news here a couple weeks ago, an online poker site, that played for real money, I don't remember which one it was, but even tho the site is based outside the US, someone who got very in debt to it and didn't feel like paying got a visit from some guys working for the poker site who beat the crap outta him, lol.

Wow, I guess that's the chance he took, eh?. lol

No, we stick to the play money around here. Too cheap to actually waste money on gambling! lol
