Blinds

Blinds are compulsory bets that are designed to get the betting started. There are two blinds -

• small blind
  

• big blind.

The small blind is posted by the player to the immediate left of the dealer

The big blind is posted by next player to his/her left. The big blind is twice the size of the small blind.

When there are only two players left in the game (and in head-to-head games) the blinds are handled slightly differently. The small blind is posted by the dealer, rather than the player to the left of the dealer. The other player posts the big blind. On our tables that support more than two players, our system will switch to head-to-head rules whenever there are only two players dealt in.
