What is a whale in poker?

[ProChips]

In poker, a whale is a very rich player who bets big often. They’re like the show stoppers of the poker world. They can be intimidating, but whales can be really exciting to play against as well. Playing against a whale doesn’t matter if you are a seasoned pro or a beginner. All you need is full concentration.
