PartyPoker

What works

Selecting a game, watching it, joining it, and single and multi-table gameplay all work. This user played a 4600 player tournament to 6th place in SuSe. :-)

All types of betting and playing are now working, and the worst visual glitches are gone.

What does not

Minor graphical difference from the client running in native Windows:

In the tournament lobby, the background coloring does not extend across the full line, just where there is text.

On table play, the chip amounts in the pot and being bet are written slanted upward by 1 pixel from left to right.

Font weights aren't quite right, because the names and stack sizes of each player are hard to read.

Text for player actions are missing. This is supposed to replace the player's name and chip stack size at the moment the action is taken, and then go away after a second. Instead, the player's name and stack size disappear for the second, but no text is present.

The window focus with regard to the chat is not right. Typing into the chat window will work, but the cursor will not be visible after a few focus changes, and pressing enter will no longer say what you have written.

Sound works well, as long as you don't turn it on at the beginning of a game. Otherwise, it will loop over the dealing out noise for the whole length of the game, until it is shut down and restarted. Sound when watch other tournaments in progress works well.

Table transitions were a bit slow still, and automatic table moves in the process of a tournament occasionally resulted in a message that I already had a table open and that I needed to close one. This is probably due to the timing. The code which opened the new table probably succeeded while the delay in closing the old table, due to Wine, was still in process.
