PokerStars Now Offer Mac Software

Last week, PokerStars announced that they were now ready to launch their new downloadable Mac poker software. The poker website had finished the beta testing phase of the Mac software and launched it just in time for Mac players to participate in the World Championship of Online Poker.

Since 2005, Macintosh has been improving their gaming platform and PokerStars has been working for a year to be able to offer their Mac customers a downloadable version of their software. This new version is compatible with Mac OS 0.4.10 and later versions.

The new software is available in fifteen languages and additional support services are being added each day. PokerStars decided to build the poker software for the new Mac system instead of forcing a PC application onto users.  The new software allows Mac players to experience the same features as other PC users do.

PokerStars commented in a press release: “The launch of PokerStars.com for Mac surpasses other web-based and outdated online poker Mac applications and secures PokerStars commitment to enhancing the experience for all players.”

Joe Hachem, a member of Team PokerStars stated: “This is a great addition for both PokerStars.com and the poker playing audience. This will allow Mac users to experience the world's largest online poker site without third-party applications. I know a lot of the actors and musicians I coach via PokerStars.com will appreciate its release as the creative community use Macs before any other computer.”
