To play Texas Holdem online at your favorite places to play, first, you have to download (free) their game client software onto your computer. This is the case at every established online Texas Holdem site, including PartyPoker, EmpirePoker, PokerStars, Hugepots and many more.

The only online poker site where you can open an account, much like an email account without a download, is Pokerroom.com. Pokerroom.com is unique in this way and this feature is probably a major reason they are one of the most successful online Texas Holdem sites today.

Pokerroom.com was designed by MAC users, with MAC users in mind. If you own a MAC and enjoy playing Texas Holdem, then know, because of download incompatibility issues, your online selection is limited. To learn more read Online Poker for MAC Users and see Places to Play.

If you go to most online poker sites you will see, on their homepage, something along the lines of ‘download now' flashing in big letters. If you click on this icon a box will appear titled ‘File Download' asking you ‘would you like to open the file or save it to your computer?'

 

Lets cut the chit chat, and Just Play Texas Holdem.

Our featured online Poker Room is PokerRoom.com where for a limited time, we have negotiated a special 30% Bonus (Up to $150) to players making Real Money Deposits. In less than 5 minutes you can be playing Live Poker.

Once you click ‘open' it will begin to install the game client software on to your computer. It should then prompt you to hit next ‘if you want them to begin Setup Wizard.' After you hit next it will ask you to read and ‘accept agreement.'

The game client software will now appear on your desktop with a little logo icon that conveniently goes right on your desktop, which you click on, whenever you want to play Texas Holdem at that site.

If you simply want to play then click on how to get started.
