USA Flash Poker Sites

Flash poker sites work similar to java poker sites, in that they give players the option to play poker online instantly without downloading any software. The difference between the two systems is the application used. A java poker room uses a java applet application whereas Flash poker sites are powered by Macromedia Flash and distributed through Adobe. Most PC users already have a flash player installed on their hard drive when purchasing their PC. If you try to play poker on a flash poker site and don’t have the software required, the poker room will more than likely provide you with a link to upgrade or download.

USA Players Please Read - There are no US flash poker sites available. Please have a look at our Mac poker page which outlines poker rooms compatible with Mac OS, or you can opt to play at one of the java poker sites.
