WSOP Debuts along with new version of Parallels
It seemed like just yesterday that the WSOP was ending and Jamie Gold was raking in the 12 million. Here we are again. The controversy last year was over several million missing chips during the main event. This year, the news so far is about the new pokerpeek cards which everyone hated, sending Harrah’s officials scrambling to find a bazillion decks of KEM cards. I understand the pain - I’ve been playing at Full Tilt with a new card mod, and my color blind eyes are having a rough time with it. I will go back to the card mod that has primary colors so I can tell whether I’ve got a flush again. It would be cool to have a pokerpeek mod.
On the other side of the country, the coders at Parallels were drinking a couple of cold ones after releasing the latest version — 3.0. Here are the updates straight from the horse’s mouth:
Like the UI integration with Coherence?
You’ll love application and file integration with SmartSelectWant to run the hottest games and graphics applications?
Enjoy 3D with support for graphics softwareWorried about security and system crashes?
Protect yourself with Snapshots and Security Settings
The new enhancements allow you to do the following:
- Open Windows files in Mac applications and Mac files in Windows applications
- Bulletproof your VM from viruses, system crashes, and malware
- Run today’s most popular games & applications on a Mac
- Browse through Windows folders, without launching Windows
They are giving you a bit off right now. Before June 6th release it is $39.99. After the release it is $49.99. The final full price will be $79.99.
I may have to upgrade because Parallels has made my Full Tilt experience so much better. I am trampling the fish with six tables open, poker tracker updating all of the competition’s stats on the fly for me, and PokerAce Heads Up Display serving the info to each of my tables…Heaven.
