888.com Rolls Out the Red Carpet to Mac Users

Gibraltar (PRWEB) August 10, 2005 -– 888.com (www.888.com), the world's leading online casino, recently announced the launch of Pacific Poker’s Mac Online Poker (http://pacificpoker.com/mac), one of the first online poker rooms designed exclusively for Macintosh users.

Mac Pacific Poker is a milestone in the online gaming industry; it is one of the first online poker rooms that utilizes Macintosh compatible software.

“Mac users don’t have to fly to Las Vegas anymore if they want to play poker,” Mike Herea, promotions department manager for 888.com said. “In the past, vacationing in Vegas was easier as there were no online poker rooms that would work with a Macintosh.”

Earlier this month, 888.com also premiered Mac Online Casino (www.888.com/mac), one of the first online casinos designed specifically for Macintosh users. At Mac Online Casino players can choose from traditional casino game favorites including Blackjack, Craps, Roulette, and an array of slot machine and Video Poker choices.

Other online casino and poker room websites only allow Mac players access to the practice play demo versions of their casino games and poker room tables, whereas the Mac Online Casino and Mac Poker Online rooms allow Mac users to play for real money.

On Macintosh Poker Online, the players have access to all of the great benefits, promotions and exciting events happening on the main Pacific Poker.

Right now, Mac Online Poker is offering an opening promotion to all new Macintosh players. To celebrate its debut, Mac Pacific Poker is giving a 25% bonus, up to $100, on a player’s first deposit. Macintosh players can choose from hundreds of rooms featuring the poker game favorites of Texas Hold’em, Omaha Hi, Omaha Hi/Lo, 7 card stud, and 7 card stud Hi/Lo.

“Mac players don’t have to enter through the back door of online casinos anymore and stay in a restricted area. Now they can come through the front door and have unlimited, VIP access to the casino,” Herea said. “Mac players finally have first-rate options to chose from.”

Players on Mac PacificPoker will be playing and interacting with the users on Pacific Poker through a groundbreaking technological innovation. The technology forms a virtual bridge between the new Macintosh rooms and the original online rooms at Pacific Poker (www.pacificpoker.com).
