Review of Poker Co-Pilot for Mac

A while back I received a review copy of the very promising software Poker Co-Pilot. If you’ve ever owned a Mac computer, you’re familiar with the problem: virtually all poker software is developed for Windows exclusively. Some of the larger rooms like Pokerstars, Ongame and Full Tilt have Mac clients or browser-based poker, but the associated tools like HUDs and database trackers have been solely the domain of Windows.

Poker Co-Pilot is the first serious Mac competitor to Hold Em Manager and Pokertracker. It’s still in the early stages of development, but offers the potential of a fully comparable Mac tool, at a reasonable cost and with the minimalist Mac look that many people enjoy.


Update from the small-stakes

Just a few quick bullet points in lieu of a full post:

  • I’m about 90% of the way to Supernova on Pokerstars. Should have it finished by mid-october. In addition to the 40% bump in FPPs over Platinum Star, I really like the ability to make big purchases outside the VIP store with FPPs through the concierge service.
  • I received a review copy of Poker Co-Pilot, a pokertracker-like program for Mac from Steve, the developer. I will write up a full review on this site shortly. It’s a very promising program, though it still needs work to compete with Hold Em Manager and Pokertracker as a truly professional tool.
