I’m wondering if in spread games, is it possible to be the big blind though I don’t have sufficient money to put it up? Say I have $500, but the big blind is actually $1000. What do you think?

Should I just leave the table as I cannot buy-in? If so, what will happen with my $500?

Thank you. Nice site!

Wesley

Wesley,

Regardless of cash game or tournament, if you have $500 and the big blind is $1,000, then you will be all-in for $500. The most you can win from each opponent will be $500.

If you leave the table in the middle of a tournament and you are all-in for $500 in the blind, your hand will be mucked and you will be eliminated from the tournament.

If you are in a cash game, and decide to leave before the hand is dealt, you can take your $500 with you.
