Frequently asked questions

What is a cash game in poker?

A game where chips represent their face value in money, blinds stay fixed, and players can join, leave or rebuy at any time.

How does cash game strategy differ from tournaments?

Chips are worth exactly their face value, so there is no ICM and survival has no premium — you can always rebuy. Correct play is simply whatever makes the most money per hand, which makes marginal calls and thin value bets far more attractive than in a tournament.
