Nikhil Arcot, known infamously as \u201cNik Airball,\u201d made his Hustler Casino Live return on Friday after a year away from the high-stakes cash game stream.<\/p>\n
Airball had been a regular player on HCL streams for about two years before he was banned from the Los Angeles area Hustler Casino around this same time in 2024. The reason for the ban was never revealed, but it raised some eyebrows around the poker world as many were left wondering why HCL would remove one of their more popular headliners.<\/p>\n
Since his ban, Airball has played on some cash game streams elsewhere but not nearly as often of a clip as he was doing in the prime HCL days. He likely was not studying his hardest on cash game poker<\/a> strategy as he always tended to be more of a feel player.<\/p>\n
