I no longer have any association with WinPoker but I still get questions about it because I was associated with it for a long time. I suggest people address their questions about the product to Dean Zamzow at dean@zamzone.com I suggest the same to you.

Hey Bob,

The question was directed to the group. Thanks for reply, though. I had hoped our group might have some suggestion to get me on a track to success. I'm not real fond of windows 8.

Bob. Are you still selling your products? Or have you changed gears into some other business? I Haven't been keeping lately.

Cheers.....Jeep

Sure. I sell my stuff at bobdancer.com; LVA, a couple of gambling-related bookstores in Vegas; and during my classes (which will next start at South Point September or October.

The reason I no longer sell WinPoker is that it hadn't been upgraded in more than a decade and the folks at Action Gaming (now called videopoker.com) were willing to create new software and asked me to be on the devopment team--- which is called Video Poker for Winners. Had WinPoker made timely updates I would still be a part of it. The now-15-year-old version of WinPoker remains a quality product.

Is Video Poker for Winners compatible with Windows 8?

I have both programs and like WinPoker because I can view it full screen, while the VPW program is much smaller on my screen and in Super Times Pay the X partially obliterates the first card in the hand. I really don't want to mess with my screen resolution either.
I was forced into Windows 8 when my computer died and would love to use WinPoker on it. I get by by using the iPod version.

Your right on the money. It's an excellent product. I also have the one associated with Wong. It's good too. Changing pay tables and running stats, though, was a slow process. I think had to run computer all night for results. 10 - 15 seconds for Win Poker.

Thanks for the info.

Back to your original question. Someone I trust told be you can get WinPoker to work on Windows 8 if you get the professional version of Windows 8. Apparently the home version does not give you backward compatibility with 16-bit programs like WinPoker
