Having a Mac is great, I swear wouldn’t give my old 3 year old Macbook Pro up for a laptop even if you gave it to me for free! They stand the test of time, are light and everything looks crisper.

But, when it comes to online poker having a Mac can make things tricky!


My number one recommended for the best online poker sites for Mac users is:

Unibet Poker on Mac

Download a 37mb package and after this you can be playing real money online poker in under 360 seconds - try it! It’s true I promise.

You will not find Unibet’s software anywhere else, it looks super clean on mac and unlike many other poker sites in this review, Unibet offers new sign ups completely free cash.

Additionally, Unibet is traded on the Stockholm stock exchange and has been in the online gambling business since 1997. I just couldn’t see past it for my number one choice.


If my top pick doesn’t suit you, then browse on and find out four more great, Mac compatible, online poker rooms.


888Poker on Mac

Much like Unibet, 888 Poker offers free cash for new customers and of course is Mac compatible.

The free cash offer changes regularly and depends on your country, so the best reference for the exact offer is the deal box above and of course if you have any issues or specific queries PokerTube does offer a live chat support service - so challenge our poker experts and find out if they really know their stuff!

The 888 software runs smoothly on Mac, but it’s probably fair to say it is quite 2 dimensional when compared with Unibet (not as exciting or featureful) and far less customisable than Pokerstars.

However, because of the risk free cash and easy download, 888Poker is my second highest rated Mac compatible poker site!


Full Tilt Poker on Mac

However, those who are used to seeing 10s of thousands of players online Full Tilt, might be in for a shock.

There can be no doubt that games are enjoyable and of course they offer and in fact were the pioneer of speed poker (known as “RushPoker”)

Unlike the top two spots, Full Tilt does not offer any free cash currently. However (if it is any consolations), users who sign up using the link above will be eligible for PokerTube tournaments and promotions which run regularly with money added prizes.


Pokerstars on Mac

Good arguments could be made for ranking Pokerstars number one in this article. They have offered a mac client for almost a decade. There is no doubt that across all platforms Pokerstars offers the “best” software and experience or at least this seems to be what the majority thinks.

Pokerstars players also enjoy the largest MTTs in the world. Unfortunately, a symptom of all these great things, is the fact that Pokerstars is quite a difficult place to play poker profitable and the poker site of choice for most professionals.


BetVictor on Mac

Many might view my fifth choice as unorthodox, but there is no doubt that BetVictor deserve their place on this list!

A member of the MPN (Microgaming Poker Network), BetVictor players enjoy access to a respectable level of traffic. At the time of writing the network sits at 11th in the world and playing at BetVictor means you will play vs. players from sites like StanJames, Betsson and many other large online bookies and casinos.

The software performs well on Mac and if you are considering playing more than a little bit of poker, BetVictor is likely the best value poker room you will find on this list. All players are guaranteed exactly 30% rakeback just for signing up through PokerTube and get a deposit bonus in addition to this, taking your total initial return to a minimum of 50%.

Finally, it’s worth noting that BetVictor support is top class. It might be the case you speak to a member of the team who isn’t up to speed on poker, but typically I have always had a detailed, proper answer, to my query within 24 hours - I’ve only experienced this level of service and detail from one other poker room in all my years! So hats off Victor!


So there it is - If you have additional info on the best online poker sites for Mac users that you think should make this list or any feedback, just leave a comment below.

Good luck at the tables.
