Today we have an interesting hand from The Lodge where Doug Polk makes a huge all-in river bet in a high stakes live cash game!
Texas poker is WILD and this hand is no different! Constant straddles, 3-bets, huge bluffs, and massive pots make these games extremely exciting… and profitable for great players like Doug Polk! When the straddle reaches $100 in this $5/$10 live cash game, Polk gets into a high stakes battle with Poker Traveler in a pot that is over $35,000!?
In this video I take a look at the poker strategy you should apply in straddled pots in live cash games and cover the fundamentals for bet sizings on both your bluffs and value hands!
Thank you to The Lodge for letting me use their footage! Check them out here: https://www.youtube.com/TheLodgeLive
