Was the Big Blind Twice!
Hi,
I joined a pot-limit tournament the other night. I remember my chip stack then was around 3 ½ times the big blind and at my table were 6 players, 4 joined in while a hand was in action. If I may add, I was the big blind during such hand, was raised and then folded.
Later, button had the next hand and moved it to the direction of the player who just joined in. At such point, I was again in the big blind, then raised and folded. Next hand then came and I was the small blind that placed me all in.
In the end, I lost and just got the 29th place, 20th place paid. I wanted a refund however I was deprived from having it. Hosts said I got an advantage though I also got some disadvantages. Any thoughts?
By the way, your site is so great and helpful. Keep up the good work.
Thanks!
Regards,

Grummon,
You should not have had 2 big blinds. If a player was moved into the seat where the small blind was the prior hand, the player should have sat out one hand, and you should have been the small blind.
Their lack of knowledge cost you an extra blind.
