Getting Started with Online Poker

Play Online Poker

So you want to get started playing online poker? These simple steps will get you started.

The first step is to download the online poker room software from the poker website. Be sure to remember where you save the software, as the next step is to double-click the software icon to install the poker room. The install wizard will complete the installation sequence. Once the installation is complete, you can launch the online poker software and register.

Registration with the poker room is simple. You must be connected to the internet – launch the poker software and click the ‘Connect’ button to connect to the online poker room. The first time you connect you will need to select the ‘Register an Account’ option to sign up.

You’ll be asked to choose an alias. This will be both your username to log into the poker room and the name by which other players will know you online, so choose carefully. You will also choose a password, which is case-sensitive and must be used each time you log into the poker room. Keep your username and your password in a safe place, as they give access to your account.

That’s all it takes – now you can log into the online poker room and play, anytime you like!
