We often get asked if we have an affiliate program. Until now, the answer has sometimes been “no”, and sometimes “not yet”. We tried an informal approach via FastSpring, our previous payment processor, but that didn’t work out very well.

Poker Copilot and OS X 10.12, aka macOS 10.12, aka macOS Sierra

Short version: Poker Copilot fully on macOS Sierra.

Long version:

Apple recently made a preview version of the next OS X update available for developers. They’ve renamed OS X as macOS. The new version will be macOS Sierra (version 10.12). It will be available for the public later this year.

Today I downloaded and installed a developer preview of macOS Sierra. It looks and feels exactly like the current version of OS X, with the exception of Siri. Siri, the voice assistant from iPhones and iPads, is now part of macOS. It doesn’t seem to work very well. I speak, Siri mishears and does something I didn’t want done. She refuses to undo the thing she actually did. I then need to use the keyboard and mouse to get rid of what Siri did and do what I asked Siri to do. Siri seems like a marketing gimmick, rather than a useful operating system feature.

Anyway, back to Poker Copilot. It worked without a single problem. As a developer of a software product, I’m grateful that an operating system update is so uneventful. As a geek, I wish the new OS X update did new, amazing things.

So, if you need or want to update to macOS Sierra, you can be sure that Poker Copilot still runs.

 

PokerStars now shows hole cards for all-in players

This is an interesting change by PokerStars: if a player is in an all-in showdown, their cards are displayed on the screen:

Previously only tournaments would immediately show hole cards before running out the board and cash game players would be able to hide their cards, with only the winning hand forced to show.

This has now changed and hole cards in cash games will be displayed in every All-in scenario.

Read more here.

Poker Copilot gives you this functionality once the hand is over, by displaying all known hole cards for a few seconds immediately after a hand is over. This feature will be less useful now for PokerStars players. You can turn this off in Poker Copilot’s Preferences -> Head-up Display -> General -> Show mucked cards:

There is a good reason for leaving “show mucked cards” feature on in Poker Copilot; it also shows your all-in equity value if you were involved in the hand. It is a great way to tell immediately whether you made a terrible decision and need to mark the hand for review.

iPoker skins come, and iPoker skins go

EverestPoker was on the iPoker network. They recently decided to close down, and concentrate on their other iPoker skin, BetClic Poker. So today’s Poker Copilot update adds support for:

  • BetClic Poker
  • BetClic Poker.IT (for poker players in Italy)
  • BetClic Poker.FR (for poker players in France)

iPoker has two different versions of the software. Here at Poker Copilot, we’ve given the two versions rather obvious names: “iPoker Old Software” and “iPoker New Software”. Currently we support both versions, but we do need to make small changes each time a given skin switch from the old software to the new software. If your favourite iPoker skin is not working in Poker Copilot, do let us know at support@pokercopilot.com and we’ll soon rectify the situation.
