I disagree with Bob Ciaffone. Who is right?
What happens in your card room when a player misses the small blind only and wants to post in late position? I would say that a posted small blind is always dead to the center, Bob says it is live up to the amount of the minimum bet. Here is the excerpt from Robert's Rules. There are a couple of other spots I disagree with Bob, but I was really suprised that he took this position.

A player who misses any or all blinds can resume play by either posting all the blinds missed or waiting for the big blind. If you choose to post the total amount of the blinds, an amount up to the size of the minimum opening bet is live. The remainder is taken by the dealer to the center of the pot and is not part of your bet. When it is your next turn to act, you have the option to raise.
