This Apple online poker software will run in the browser for quick play modes. Pacific Poker stated they will be giving new Apple poker players up to $100 instantly upon opening a new real money account.

Along with the new software launch Pacific Poker has upgraded their tournament listings to add the World Series of Poker Satellites. These satellites will run hourly. The satellites will give Apple poker players a chance to fly to Las Vegas and play for the big event which Joseph Hachem won last year with a first place prize of $7.5 million.

This Apple poker software will include the poker forum and the poker school that Windows users enjoy. Players can talk strategies of learn how to play Texas Holdem in both the school and the forum. Common topics in the forum include online poker tells and how to play and consistently win. (www.mac-pacificpoker.com)

The new Apple poker software will use a program called Java. Because Apple computers are not compatible with Windows, Java acts as the medium for the poker software allowing Macs to play poker for free without purchasing Windows.

Pacific Poker hopes to gain more market share by offering their online poker room for Apple’s but they say nothing is a guarantee. Pacific Poker was one of the first Apple compatible poker rooms but Mac users say there are more on the way. ( www.Mac-Pacificpoker.com )
