In Heads Up Play

Hello there!

I’m wondering, in heads up play, does the big blind shift to the person without the button? In online events, I noticed that when it comes down to heads up, the dealer suddenly doesn’t post the big blind, but just the little or small blind instead.

I’m troubled and clueless.

Theodore,

In heads-up poker, the button posts the small blind. Preflop, the button is the first to act. The button is then last to act on all streets.
