I was able to use PartyPoker's client with wine-1.1.44 on gentoo. It had two
needs:

1. winetricks ie6
2. start with wine /path/to/PartyGaming.exe -P=PartyPoker

The 'err:ole:CoUninitialize Mismatched CoUninitialize' error mentioned before
in this issue is only emerged when I tried to start without the '-P=PartyPoker'
flag. This caused me a lot of headache too to figure it out:)

However as of today PartyPoker is updated the client which cannot run anymore
after an otherwise clean update procedure (apart that it couldn't update itself
so I needed to download the new installer .exe manually).

I'll attach the log recorded during the failing startup.

After diffing the old and new PartyGaming directories, I think PartyGaming has
been migrated internally to use Visual C++ 2008. So I ran winetricks vcrun2008,
but it didn't helped.

Oh, I tried this all with wine-1.2 on Ubuntu 10.4, but I think it will be the
same on my home machine which runs gentoo..:(
