Mac Poker Room Recommendations
Own a Mac but don't know where to play online poker? On this site, I will
make recommendations of the best Mac poker rooms. You can play for free or
you can choose to play online poker for real money.
My first recommendation is Pacific Poker. Pacific Poker is owned and
operated by one of the largest online casinos in the world, 888.com. They
have a no-download Java poker client that is very stable on Mac OS
computers. Read my full review of PacificPoker.
Second on my list is PokerRoom. These guys have been in business for many
years and their software was actually developed by Mac users! They offer a
no-download Java poker client that features incredible 3D graphics and
avatars. Read my full review of PokerRoom.
My third final recommedation is Full Tilt Poker. Although they are new to
the Mac poker world, they have certainly created a buzz with their unique
native Mac online poker client. The graphics will blow you away, but so will
the tough competition. Read my full review of FullTilt Poker.
Why Online Poker Doesn't Work for Macs
It's quite unfortunate that most online poker rooms don't have poker for
Macs, but there is a reason for this. Most poker rooms use executable (.exe)
files, which aren't compatible with Macintosh OS. However, we have listed
compatible rooms on our Mac online poker page. In addition to that, our
readers can receive exclusive poker bonuses from iMac Online Poker.

Party Poker for Mac, No Download! - July 16, 2006
Party Poker unveiled its no download poker software today (Beta) in an
attempt to gain Linux and Mac poker players and add them to it's already
thriving community.
The software makes it possible for anybody to play anywhere, no matter which
operating system you use. One of our readers stated "Now I can honestly say
that I truly have no use for Microsoft Windows."
Macintosh poker players can begin enjoying the new no-download PartyPoker
software by simply going to PartyPoker.com/nodownload and clicking the large
button on the page. Make sure to use our link and enter PartyPoker bonus
code MP100 if you are new to Party Poker and want to receive a Welcome Bonus
of 20% up to $100.
It appears that we will have to update our old Party Poker Mac article with
new, more relevant information regarding how to play Party Poker for Mac. I
do think that I am going to wait until they have passed through BETA before
I republish the information though.
The no download version of Party Poker uses Java and the requirements to use
the no-download poker software are minimal. I have arranged a chart below
for you in case you are curious about the compatibility issues of playing
Party Poker for Mac or Linux.
