WTF are you guys talking about. Straddling adds action and most people like the rule (which is why they allow it).....You guys are just a bunch of nits

Post: $2 live + $1 dead
Straddle: $4 live + $0 dead + last action
Seems a lot of benefits for the extra $1.

Keep in mind that if not allowed to straddle this way the player will likely post absolutely nothing, wait one hand and post a big blind. I don't see that being such a benefit to the game.

Depends where you're playing. In LA if the player waits he still has to post the BB and SB with a dead SB. I'm not sure what would happen if he wanted to straddle since I have been racking my brain and I can't recall seeing this before but if I had to guess then here in LA he would have to put in $5 and $1 would be dead.
