PokerStars launches Mac version of its software

11 Sep 2008

PRESS RELEASE -- PokerStars, the world's largest online poker room, announced the launch of its much anticipated downloadable Mac poker software. For the past year, the PokerStars development team has dedicated themselves to bringing a complete version of the well-established PokerStars software to life on Apple Mac operating platforms.

"This is a great addition for both PokerStars and the poker playing audience," said Joe Hachem, 2005 World Series of Poker Champion. "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 will appreciate its release – the creative community use Macs before any other computer."

PokerStars is devoted to remaining the leader in online poker - offering the best software and security, with a total commitment to customer service and 100% dedication to innovation. Mac OS X has quickly improved as a gaming platform since 2005. The launch of PokerStars for Mac surpasses other web-based and outdated online poker Mac applications and secures PokerStars commitment to enhancing the experience for all players. Rather than trying to force a PC application on to the Mac, PokerStars built their poker software specifically for new Mac operating systems.

Until now, a beta version was available to Mac users while the PokerStars IT team worked methodically to deliver downloadable software compatible to Mac OS X 10.4.10 and later operating systems. With more than 15 million players worldwide, PokerStars software (for both Mac and Windows) is available in more than 15 languages, with support for more being added every day.

"PokerStars understands what gamers want," said Bertrand "ElKy" Grospellier, 2008 PCA Champion and top online poker star. "Although PCs are still the top gaming platform, the number of online games for Mac has been growing by leaps and bounds. The community started asking for an acceptable online poker version for Mac, and PokerStars stepped up to deliver it. They didn't rush into a launch, but developed the best software for the platform, in line with Mac user feedback and advice, to ensure users have a positive experience.

The new software is available at www.pokerstars.net/poker/download/mac/. New users only need to follow five simple steps to become part of the number one online poker room in the world.
