Paddy Power Poker Launches Instant Play Software

Friday January 09, 2009

The Paddy Power Poker has launched its new no-download, instant play iPoker software to complement its more conventional download suite of games. Currently only Texas Hold'em games are available, but company spokesmen say the poker room is working hard to bring a full suite of games to the Instant Play version.

"We're thrilled to extend our product offering to include a non-downloadable version of our software. The fact that players can now use the Instant Play software anytime, anywhere gives them the flexibility to play at times that were previously unsuitable" said Paddy Power, Communications Manager for Paddy Power Poker.

"It also means that players who don't want to download the standard software client can try out the iPoker software on Paddy Power Poker."

The instant play facility enables Mac, Linux, Unix and PC users to play, opening up a wider market to the new poker room. The company is offering Cash/Ring games, Single Table Tourneys or Multi Table Tourneys, and the software can be used on most popular widely Internet browsers such as Mozilla Firefox 1.5+ and Internet Explorer 6+, operating systems and platforms.

Existing Paddy Power Poker players can use their accounts to play on the no-download version without any further action.
