Global Poker

The live streaming of poker cash games and tournaments continues to be popular with hundreds of players taking to Twitch and YouTube to showcase their skills each and every day.

With Global Poker’s stock rising in the online poker world, thanks in part to almost half a million in $weeps Cash in the Online World Challenge, it is not surprising that some popular poker streamers are grinding on the site on a regular basis.

One streamer is Matthew “ModPoker” Newell who is the self-proclaimed ‘King of Micro Stakes.” Newell uses the YouTube streaming platform to play in low stakes cash games at Global Poker, has a fun style and he archives his videos in case you miss his live stream

If watching tournament poker is more up your street, you may want to check out the Twitch channel of the Global Poker player “Fireburns.” He streams his performances in the SC$500 tournaments, one of the most popular MTTs on Global Poker.

Another popular game at Global Poker is the SC$2 to SC$1,000 challenge, a challenge that JLongoPoker and SpaceMexican1 are regulars in. The challenge is a superb way to build both your poker skills and bankroll because all players new to Global Poker receive a free SC$2 so literally, everyone can get involved.

If you've been watching SpaceMexican1, you may have also seen him take down the OWC SC$750 Guarantee which he streamed live.

Global Poker would love to hear from you if you like to stream yourself playing poker.
