I doubt it, because it needs to have postgres installed as well, and I don't think it would be possible to do this on a thumbdrive. It will be further complicated because PT3 needs to be configured for how the poker sites' software is installed, which can be different on each computer.

how about installing postgres and the poker sites' software in the thumb drive as well? then all of them will be in the same drive which makes it portable. will that works?

I really doubt it - as I said, they all need access to the Windows registry etc, and if you are plugging it into different computers the set up is going to be wrong.

I'm sure someone will give you a definitive answer, or explain why you can't do it better than I can.

whiterider is correct - it won't work... the closest thing to this would be setting up a network db server on a VPN...
