Nit Procedure Question

In most Vegas places, you're allowed to move three seats to you left (pass two players) without any issue. If you move more than three seats, then you have to post or wait for your big blind to come.

In some places, if you move X seats, you have to post or wait X hands before being dealt in again. I consider this the best system.

Hmm, she definitely moved more than two seats. Obviously not something I'm going to complain about, but still obnoxious.

Thanks for explaining.

This is standard in Southern California. Most clubs would make you post both blinds but I got them to reduce the posting penalty to the big blind only at the Bike.

There's no advantage *; it simply reduces the excessive penalty of having to post both blinds when simply moving away from the blinds (when missing them you need to wait for the big blind or post both blinds).

But giving more opportunities for getting people back in action does have the advantage of being good for the game.

PS * Before suggesting/lobbying for this change I polled the 2+2 math wizards; one might have indicated there could be a minuscule advantage moving from UTG to the cutoff. Not enough to matter.
