All you need to do is download and install our Free Software.

You can start the download by clicking Download.

If you want detailed step by step instructions on getting started, click here.

We recommend that you 'Run' or 'Open' the installation file. However in some cases you may want to 'Save' the file to your local disk, such as if you plan on installing the software on many computers, you may want to download this file instead. It contains all needed files in one bundle and will install without any further downloads.

Once you have downloaded and installed the software, locate the Classic Poker icon on your DeskTop and double click it.

You can also go to your Windows Start Menu > All Programs > Classic Poker > Classic Poker to launch the software.

Once the Poker software launches, register for an account, deposit funds and start playing or simply play for fun.

If for some reason, the poker software does not upgrade properly, then you may have to reinstall the software. To do so, click on the download link and follow the installation instructions.

NOTE: You will need to 'Activate' your account if a new or reinstall of the software is done.

Account Activation is another security measure that we have to protect you as a player. Players will need to 'Activate" their account anytime a new install or re-install of the software is done, or if the player wants to play the poker software on a different computer than the one the original account was created on.

This ensures an added layer of protection for our players. At Classic Poker, security and protection is our priority!

Anytime you do a new install or re-install of the poker software, you will need to 'Activate' your account. You do not need to 'Activate' on software upgrades.

To 'Activate' your account, go to the 'My Account' drop down menu on the poker lobby and select "Activate Account'. The following window will appear:

Just input your information and click on the 'Activate' button and you are set to go. You will have to know your Account # that was sent to you in your Welcome email or you can write or call Customer Support to get that information again. This is the number found in the ECash cashier window (e.g. D603259712).

Please contact our friendly support staff via support@classicpoker.com.

Ensure that you provide as much detail as possible in describing your problem so that our support staff can contact you as quickly as possible with answers.
