Question. We play a friendly cash game. Late arrivals are required to post their blind upon arrival regardless of where they are seated. Last night two people arrived late at the same time. They sat down to the immediate left of the big blind and immediately posted as requied. Betting went around the table and big blind checked. Then player to left of big blind checked and player to his left bet. I said you cant bet after big blind checks. Everyone said i was wrong. My thinking was they should have been first to act. The only way to to steal position from big blind is to straddle with twice the blind. Everyone said i was wrong. How am I wrong? The way they did this made no sense at all to me.
