Yes, I did it from Delaware. You simply go to https://www.starsmtairycasino.com/, then click on the PokerStars logo and the download link appears as a large green box in the middle of the screen.

More MacOS issues. I uninstalled it like support said and reinstalled it and now I get a message that says Mac is unable to check it for malicious content and it won't open.

Sigh......

Thats what i have tried to do but it redirects me to the pokerstarsnj download. My guess is that since i am in NJ i only have access to the NJ stars and cant get to the PA stars install files

I heard 4 tables is the max but someone on here mentioned 6 tabling. I think 4 tables is the max ?

Is the 4 table cash game cap a thing for PA? (I know ROW stars implemented this but I thought .nj was still uncapped and had assumed the same for PA but just read that there is a cap.. anyone confirm?)

I was playing on 6 at a time so the cap is definitely not 4.

I did not try to add any tables beyond 6 so not sure beyond that.

Same problem. If you go to applications -> right click and open that way you can get the software to open. Still can’t play because of the geolocation issue with Catalina OS.

Has anyone confirmed that Mojave OS works for geolocation for a Mac?

I am getting a 404 when I try to download the client. Anyone else getting this when they click here?

I am having the same problem using my Mac. But if you use Bootcamp Assistant to run Windows 10 on your Mac it will be able to Geolocate you. Its annoying having to run Windows 10, but its a good temporary "fix" if you really want to play.

OK, this is getting a little silly. I tried to deposit on my mobile with Paypal and nothing happened. It just sits at the screen talking about the deposit and nothing happens. I have funds in Paypal so it's not that a credit card is getting denied. I checked Paypal and there is no record of even trying to make the deposit.

I don't mind using the "pay near me" option, but I'd like to know it's going to work before I head to the store. How do I start a chat with support. I know I can use the "contact us" page but I'm afraid an e-mail will take days and days to get a reply.

Do you have a paypal business or personal account? When you tried making the deposit on your phone were you connected to wifi? Try using desktop or foxbet.

Good call, it was the business account thing that caused the stumble. I am now able to deposit (it shouldn't be this difficult)..

NOW, when I log on with my phone I can see my new account balance which is a start. I really have no idea how to play on the phone, though. Everytime I touch a table or tournament (presumably to enter the table or get to the tournament page) it just kinda flashes at me and nothing happens.

Again, it shouldn't be this hard.

Am I the only one unable to deposit? It keeps asking for documents and I sent them twice with no word back. I don’t even know how to contact support it’s not very clear. It’s been 24 hours

How did WSOP get a multi-state arrangement, but Stars (and every other state, if I'm not mistaken) has single state pools? To the best of my knowledge, Stars NJ and Stars PA are segregated--what allowed WSOP to be the sole site with a combined pool?

Probably because Stars PA opened 2 days ago and the DOJ stance on the Wire Act is grey right now post WSOP merge. Also because Stars was only in NJ with no state to merge with up until 2 days ago.....

For the moment with 1500+ online tonight, PA seems like it will do just fine on its own. I'm sure Stars would like to merge as soon as they can for the good of business. I tell ya it feels pretty damn good to be a resident of PA for the first time ever lol
