**tto827** · 11-26-12, 08:56 PM

Please let me know if you do figure it out, on a mac here and too lazy to try and figure it out myself.

**TobiasFunke** · 11-26-12, 08:56 PM

Well you could download a torrent of windows, thats what I did along with bootcamp on my mac. Works fine for me.

**Louisvillekid1** · 11-26-12, 08:57 PM

I just don't wanna buy fukkin windows just to use the disc one time and I will only use windows to play poker here. That's it...

**olemissbydamn** · 11-26-12, 09:05 PM

I'm in the same boat, Wine looks mad confusing.. Maybe if I win some bets tonight I'll just invest in one of the $50 programs that do all that work for you

WineBottler packages Windows-based programs snugly into OS X app-bundles. No need to install emulators or operating systems - WineBottler uses the great open-source tool Wine to run the binaries on your Mac.

**olemissbydamn** · 11-26-12, 09:34 PM

Ok, so I installed Wine and actually have the SBR Poker application open.

Question though, I have 108 SBR points, so I went to cashier and added that to poker money I guess? But when I try to sit at a table it won't let me sit because its not letting me use the points or w/e that I transferred

**olemissbydamn** · 11-26-12, 09:44 PM

Anyone care to help me out? I'm sure it's something dumb and simple, but I'm relatively new here so I have no idea.

I believe you need to be a Pro on the site to play ring games

What about tournaments? It just let me register for the one in an hour so I did that.

Woo Hoo. Good luck LK.

This thread should help bring an influx of Mac users to poker, and you just know they a will be bigger fish than AOL users.

**olemissbydamn** · 11-26-12, 09:52 PM

I figured it out, it was actually as easy as downloading wine / wine bottler, going into that and finding the setup file and just running it. Now I'm wondering do I have to be a pro to play any kind of poker? I guess I can't play ring, but what about tournaments?

**Louisvillekid1** · 11-26-12, 09:53 PM

only thing is i can't get any sound from the poker ring game?
