Heads up blind question
When you are down to 2 players is the button the big blind or small blind? I have seen it played both ways in cash and tourney games. Is one way the CORRECT way or is it casino/house choice? We have some home game players lately that have decided to make a big argument about this? I would like to take something in writing (to stop the bickering) the next time we play. Thanks for your help.

4. In heads-up play with two blinds, the small blind is on the button.

Re: Heads up blind question
Set a house rule and stick to it. It is really up to the two who are playing unless it is a tourney.
Usually, the button is also the big blind and it is up to the guy out of position. We used to play where the dealer ante was a live five. The other guy put in a blind of ten. It was five up to the dealer. Until a few years ago, we played 1,2,5 with a live dealer ante. The one was dropped to speed things up.
