Who Should Be the Next Dealer?
Hi,
There were 4 remaining players on the hand in a certain event. Dealer was knocked out first. Supposedly, I’m the next dealer then however one guy claimed that it should be his turn to deal. By the way, blinds were very high then.
Do you think it was my turn to deal or it was actually my turn to be the small blind instead? Another guy came in and said I was big blind alone and the blinds had gone up at that very moment. Anyway, three players were left at the table. Please kindly tell me everything you know about the conditions and rules related to situations where in someone is knocked out at the table. I need your help!
Thank you very much!
Warm regards,
Foster
Foster,
Since the dealer was the person eliminated, the order of which the button moves did not change. You were next to get the button and should have gotten the button. Your opponent was trying to avoid paying the blind.
If you would have been in the big blind instead of the small blind, there would have been a dead button and you would have been small blind. If you were under the gun in that hand instead of the small blind, then your friend would have been correct.
