Recently, we had a discussion with booman on AppDB about the Big Fish Games Client.
The client itself installs and runs on WINE but after installing a game it freezes and after killing it and starting again, you never get to your games because it freezes just after the start.
Booman suggested to copy the games from my Windows installation to the WINE virtual drive.
And guys, it worked (after solving a problem with my graphics card). Most of the games run seamlessly.
What doesn't work is Fairies (a hanging black screen) and Geisha (too slow to enjoy).
Else everything works so my mom can switch from Windoze XP to WINE on April 8th 2014 when XP's support ends.
I consider this a success. Thanks that PlayOnLinux exists.
