I've just switched to a mac myself and haven't had any issues with playing online pool on a mac.

It seems like it isn't a real problem.

Generally I can imagine there will be issues with playing pool on an ipad considering that the ipad can't play flash and most online pool games are designed and played in flash.

Anyone know of a good ipad online pool game that they've played already?

             Well, those pool games are really interesting, and I am playing these games for a long time. These pool games that I am playing when I have some time in front of my computer is really addicting.

I've been reading some good articles about online snooker over at PlayOnlinePool.com at the moment, to be honest I've never really spent that much time playing snooker online, it's always been pool that has held the interest for me.

If you're a snooker player in the real world and you switch over to playing online snooker I really wonder if there's enough in the game that holds you?

I'm looking for a few online pool players who can write reviews for another website that I'm looking after.

If you are interested or you know of anyone that is interested, please contact gary@online-pool.net.

Thanks! 

We have a few people around the forum looking at the online pool for a mac topic where we're trying to list the different sites around online that offer download pool games for a mac.

So, I thought we should start a discussion to see how many people who play pool and actually visit this forum do it by using a mac?

I get the feeling playing pool on an iPad is going to be pretty hard unless it's an application that you're playing as the mac iPad doesn't support flash.

Why doesn't the iPad support flash? Because Mr Jobs in his infinite wisdom says it's "buggy".

After another quick check it does look like Pool Comps (poolcomps.com) is dead and gone for good.

What a waste of a brand and network of players!

GameDuell also have an 8 ball pool game available on the site from what I can see.

It's called 8-Ball Pool and looks like the graphics are pretty good.

When you first go to the game it's a little annoying that is seems like you can play pool straight away as it shows a screen with the 8 ball gameduell game ready to play with the cue moving around and the angles towards the balls but when you try and click on it the game is not live, it just goes to a login screen.

This seems a little like cheating you into thinking you're already playing the game to me.

In some ways it does help to be able to see the 8-ball pool game prior to actually deciding to login and play it but they need to be more obvious that you can't play it straight away but will need to login!

When you're looking for online snooker games on the Internet, where do you look to play?

I'm having a wander around at the moment and trying to see if I can find somewhere that has a good number of online snooker players and isn't a pool hall but is solely a snooker hall.

If anyone knows of a place like this, let me know.

It's been a while since I've actually played an online pool game myself so I'm interested in hearing where people thing the best place to play is?

With PoolStars merging into PoolSharks PoolSharks is an obvious place to play that'll have a good set of players but where else to people play?

We have had some discussions about sites like the Pool Empire Review and the Play89 Review but I feel like there should still be a few more good places to play online pool that I haven't heard about.

Where do you consider is the best place to play online pool?

I was just popping along to the PoolSharks site for a quick look at how they are going at the moment and can see that they're down for maintenance for about 4 hours (6 - 10am GMT).

This has to be one of the better maintenance page's I've seen before..



Very well done
