Ah, I see winreg is no doubt the third-party module described here:

http://www.rutherfurd.net/python/winreg/index.html

Based on this, I think what you want to do is:

import winreg
PartyPokerKey = Key(
     winreg.HKCU,
     "Software\\PartyGaming\\PartyPoker"
     )

PartyPokerAppPath = PartyPokerKey.values["AppPath"]

I can't be sure, though, because I don't have winreg installed to try it 
out.
