What is a straddle? How do I turn it on or off?

Last updated on Oct 17, 2026

A straddle is an optional blind bet made before the cards are dealt, usually for twice the Big Blind. It increases the size of the pot and speeds up the action. When creating a game, you can turn this option on or off in [Game Settings]. It is off by default.
