Andy Stacks Says Politics in Poker Sometimes Feel like Poison

Hustler Casino Live reg Andy Stacks has tweeted an apology for his behaviour on Thursday’s live stream saying politics in poker sometimes feel like poison. After burning through $600,00 in a matter of hours, Stacks vented his frustrations at the players leaving mid-show, one-by-one.

The main source of his anger? Politics!

Politics in poker is the reality of this game- no real alliances, just everyone out for themselves.”

 

Of course, that’s always been the case. Why else would it be different?

The answer for anyone frustrated with how the politics of cash games run is simple — consider switching to tournaments.

And Andy Stacks said this is exactly what most of his pervious cash game opponents have done.

Is Andy Stacks Right?

As for Stacks having any right to complain about players leaving early, maybe he actually does. One X/Twitter poster said that the players leaving were off to a juicy private game.

Should they not have some commitment to Hustler Casino Live to respect their invites in the first place?

This is also a TV game they were leaving, one that is supposed to be something special for entertainment, too.

Maybe there should be some kind of protocol for this kind of behaviour if players want to be invited back.
