888pokers Nick eastyyy22 Eastwood Reveals How to Crush Live Cash Games
Every Friday, as we head into the weekend, a member of 888poker’s stable of incredible poker players publishes a video on the 888poker YouTube channel entitled “Focus Fridays.” The most recent episode features Nick “eastyyy22” Eastwood delving deep into the world of live cash games.
Eastwood starts by explaining the key differences between live and online poker.
How Should Your Live Cash Game Strategy Change? Considering all of the above differences, how should you change your cash game strategy when battling in the live arena?
Should You Straddle? According to GTO Wizard No Is The Short Answer
Many poker games allow straddles. You only have to watch an episode of High Stakes Poker or a Hustler Casino Live cash game stream to see straddles in action. A straddle is where a player voluntarily posts a blind bet when they are not in the small or big blind. Straddles tend to be twice the size of the big blind, with an under-the-gun staddle being the most common.
The boffins, or should that be wizards, behind GTO Wizard recently delved deep into whether or not you should straddle under the gun.
