Mac Version of Online Poker Room

Online poker room PokerStars has recently announced a new version of their poker client for the Apple Macintosh crowd. Other poker rooms that have advertised software for the Mac in reality are offering a browser based version of their poker room, but PokerStars has come out with a software specifically designed for the Macintosh operating system, Mac OS X. World Series of Poker champion Joe Hachem is quoted in the PokerStars press release as saying the creative community will be happy with this announcement as they gravitate towards Macs.

Poker slang:

FLAT CALL - To call a bet. Emphasizes that the caller did not raise.
PROP - Also PROPOSITION PLAYER. An employee of the gaming establishment whose primary purpose is to keep enough players at a table to prevent breaking up the game for lack of players. Unlike SHILLs "props" make a small hourly wage but play with their own money, winning or losing based on their skill.
READ - To determine whether an opponent has a good, medium or bad hand by observing his personal behavior. An inexact science.
MILES OF BAD ROAD - Three of a kind. Prefixed with a number, 3*<N>, to indicate 3 <N>s. Thus "24 miles of bad road" is 3 eights, etc. (This obviously doesn't work for face cards.)
FILL - To draw a card that makes a five-card hand (straight, flush, full house, straight flush).
WORLD SERIES OF POKER - A series of several different poker games with relatively large buy-ins, culminating in a $10,000 buy-in no-limit Hold'em tournament, the winner of which is crowned the World Poker Champion. Sponsored by Binion's Horseshoe Club in Las Vegas.
