Sealswithclubs, the long time (IMO) go-to for bitcoin poker has folded. The replacement, swc, is only available (for the time being) to folks who are willing to download and run .exe files.
I've tried betcoinpoker's flash client and it simply crashes for me every time I tried to load it.
I just ran across bitcoinpoker.gg and it seems their flash client works (at least it didn't crash right away). I signed up for a freeroll on tuesday to try out the software before I deposit anything there.
I'm starting this thread to solicit info from the community on the state-of-affairs with respect to bitcoin poker. Individual sites don't want you posting about competitors in their threads so perhaps here we can keep track of situation. Since I only know a little at the moment, I'd just like feedback about what sites are out there and what platforms/software they require/use. Eventually, if a lot of info appears in the replies to this OP, I'll try to update a table.
Here's a starter table to show what I'm thinking:

Here's a starter table to show what I'm thinking:
| site/company | browser | android | GNU/Linux (desktop client) | OSX (desktop client) | Windows (.exe) |
| yes | yes | yes | yes | yes | |
| swcpoker.eu | no | no | no | no | yes |
| bitcoinpoker.gg | yes | ? | ? | ? | ? |
this is a good thread to keep track on every poker sites
suggestion : do put in table for freerolls and description for the time of the freerolls , this will be the most important part for me lol
please add in betvippoker.com
browser - No
Windows desktop client - Yes
Linux desktop client - Yes
Good idea (on freerolls)! If this thread takes off I'll need to edit the table(s) quite a bit to make them look better. For the moment, I'll add in betvippoker.com (and I'm really happy to know of another site with GNU/Linux client)!
