The Muck: Does Players Selling Action Impact a Poker Game?
doug polk poker stakingDoug Polk admitted on social media that he's considering selling some of his action in the upcoming $1 million buy-in games on Hustler Casino Live. That sparked some debate as some claimed that selling pieces impacts the way a backed player plays, while others argued that poker players should only play a certain game if they can afford the entire buy-in.
Eric Persson, who will also be in those historic cash games at Hustler Casino in Los Angeles from May 26-30 gave his thoughts on Polk's decision to possibly sell action. His response is the basis behind our newest edition of The Muck.
