Wait For the Blind ( poker )
Some clubs do not let a new player (new to the particular
game) be dealt in until it is his turn to put in the blind,
supposedly to prevent his getting any "free" hands.
(Also, if a seated player has missed the blind in a particular
round, he can receive his next hand only in the blind position.)
In such a case, a player must come in on the blind, or, if not
in the big blind position, over blind or post to receive a hand;
otherwise, he must wait for the blind.
