So you're using Ubuntu and you want to find out if you can run the Titan Poker room on Ubuntu.

In this guide I will show you how you can go about running Titan Poker on Ubuntu. This is basically a guide for a specific distro when it comes to Titan Poker on Linux.

Can I run TitanPoker on Ubuntu?

Yes you can. In fact, there are actually two methods for running Titan Poker on the Ubuntu OS.

1. Play at Titan Poker in your browser using the flash version.
2. Run the downloadable Titan Poker client using WINE.

Both of these are perfectly viable options for running Titan Poker on the Ubuntu OS. Here's a breakdown of the differences in these two options.

1) Titan Poker flash version for Ubuntu.

Check out the instant play flash version of the Titan Poker room

If you visit the Titan Poker website there is the option to use an online flash-version of the software that allows you to play instantly without having to download any software. This Titan Poker flash version is compatible with Ubuntu (it's the same flash version that's compatible with Mac Titan Poker players).

The Titan Poker flash version can be played in your browser, which means that there are no compatibility issues with the Ubuntu OS.

Pros:

• You can play instantly and easily.
• No compatibility issues.

Cons:

• The flash version does not have as many features built-in as the downloadable Titan Poker client.

2) Running Titan Poker using WINE.

Visit the WINE website and download the Titan Poker software

WINE is an incredibly popular tool that Ubuntu users use for running Windows programs in Ubuntu. Aside from working incredibly well for most Windows programs, it's completely free.

After you have got WINE set up and running, you can download the Titan Poker .exe client and run it on your Ubuntu OS using WINE. From my experience the Titan Poker client works just as well through WINE on Ubuntu as it does on a standard Windows operating system. It's very impressive and works like a charm.

Pros:

• The downloadable client has loads of great features built in.

Cons:

• A little more effort than using the instant play version.

Which method should I use for playing Titan Poker on Ubuntu?

As I say, these are both perfectly good methods for playing at Titan Poker. They both have their pros and cons, but I'd recommend the following:

• As a casual player, use the flash version. If you're a casual online poker player that only plays online once a week, you're better off using the flash version. This will keep things simple for you and you're probably not going to be interested in the extra features that come with the downloadable client anyway.
• As a regular player, run the downloadable Titan Poker client using WINE. If you're playing more than once a week, you're better off getting your hands on the more advanced client and running it using WINE. It will take a little longer to get started initially, but after that it will be a breeze.

If you're a real money player, I'd almost definitely for for the WINE method. Nonetheless, if you ever have any compatibility issues with the Titan Poker client on Ubuntu using WINE, the flash version is always there just in case.
