DESCRIPTION
Cocoa Poker is is my implementation of Video Poker machines for Mac OS X. It was written from the ground up in Objective-C with Project Builder and Interface Builder. I also made all of the graphics myself -- which no doubt explains why they are so poor! This "game" was written mainly as an exercise in learning Cocoa and Objective-C. I had read through O'Reilly's Learning Cocoa book and done all the examples and wanted to try my hand at writing something "from scratch." Although it's not the most technologically advanced program in the world, I am pretty happy with the way it came out and I think it is a good App. Best of all, it's totally, absolutely, 100% free.
WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.6.1 adds the following:
  • Fixed a bug where clicking deal/draw again after a deal/draw has started would cause havoc.
  • I believe the above should also (finally) fix the duplicate card bug.
  • Compiled with Xcode to run on Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther). It runs fine in Panther on all the machines I've tested it on. Let me know if your experience is different. Should still also run on 10.2 and up but probably not 10.1 and down, your mileage may vary.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.1 or later.

LUMAN  I agree with cPeak - Quick, easy and a great way to waste time. It does exactly as it says on the tin!

HINT - Remember that video poker only pays for pairs on picture cards (and aces)!

AUTOJC  It's fun and it's free. It does a good job of simulating video poker machines at casinos.
