As you know,straddling in pokeris blind bet which is made by a player. A player places a straddle bet before any cards are dealt. This bet is usually double the size of the big blind.  The straddle bet is most commonly placed by the player immediately to the left of the big blind, but in some games, other positions can straddle as well. The player who straddles effectively becomes the third blind. The action proceeds as if there are three blinds, starting with the player to the left of the straddle.
