    Poker for MAc user's... So do i have to buy windows to install on my mac?

    I was looking at the boot camp program that apparently I already have.

    Can't I just download windows somewhere?

    Thanks,

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

    Question though, I have 108 betpoints, 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

    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

    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.

    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?
