Default Re: Straddling before the cards are dealt

[ QUOTE ]
Example: you post your big blind and next player straddles, I would say it is too late to take the blind down.

Disagree. If I don't want to lose my BB to a straddle, I should have the right to skip the hand and post my missed blinds later.

To be consistent, if a new player posts his blind in the CO and suddenly UTG announces "Live straddle!", do you feel that the new player has to leave his post in?
