Title: Playing online on a Mac
Post by: robbyefe on January 03, 2006, 02:43:15 PM

I've been playing online for a few years now, mainly willhills, ladbrokes and bluesq. Mainly for fun although my game has definately improved! I have just got a new Apple Mac, and have yet to use this to play poker, as my usual sites dont support mac's os. Can anybody recommend a trustworthy site for mac users, or advise me whether cryptologic or a another are planning to make software compatable for MacOS...???

Thanks, and Happy New Year,

Rob

this is of no help but I believe that there is only 1 site that is mac compatable at the moment.

cant remember it though  :blonde:  it may be 888 or pokerstars

It was mentioned in the latest poker player magazine though - if no one has posted it by the time i get home, Ill look it up for you :)

Welcome too :)

Alright mate you can play on Poker Room @ www.pokerroom.com this is where I play, I don't own a Mac though it's just a really good site to play on. The reason you can play on here using a Mac is that you don't have to download their software to play. You can just go to their page and launch the client.

Great site, the interface and software is good, the players aren't. ;)
So much choice of games, loads of cash ranges and the tourney choices are excellent.
I love to play there 30 person 3 table SnGs so bloody easy to finish in the money if you play them right.

You can get a windows emulator for mac (makes the software thing it's on windows so works), all poker software will work then.
