Default WiFi

Hi, I need some help with something. I'm going to visit my parents for a couple of weeks and I'm going to be staying at their house. I just found out that they don't have an internet connection anymore, but I definitely need to play poker while I'm there. I looked into those wireless internet cards, but they're way too expensive for just a couple of weeks.

One thing I came up with was going to the local Starbucks instead and using their Bell WiFi hotspot. Would it be safe enough to do this? I'd only be logging into Party, but I'm a MSNL player so I have a good chunk of money on there. I always run Zonealarm and AVG. Is that enough to keep me safe, or do I need something like a VPN? (I don't know how to set one of those up but I suppose I could learn).

And what about taking my laptop to an internet cafe and using their wireless connection?

Any suggestions and advice are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
