There is a bug which is happening when sitting in in the small or big blind positions.

[image: i.gyazo.com]

As the image shows, Vanessa has just sat into the game in the Small Blind position. She has $375,000 in front of her, posted in blinds. ($250,000 Big Blind).

The correct procedure for this situation should be "Big Blind Only". Where the player sitting in, to the left of the dealer, is the one that posts the big blind. Their owed Small Blind ($125,000 in this case) goes into the middle of the pot as dead money.

This is needed because other wise the player to the left of the newly sitting in player posts the big blind twice, and in some situations, three times. Which is far from correct or ideal.

Ideally when entering the game in a position where you are not posting a blind, the ability to post a pre positional blind and play rather than waiting for the button should be made after the button has moved. (Skipping you completely if it should land on you or should you land on the blinds)
