The player who was the big blind now posts the small blind and the player to his left posts the big blind. The player who was the button will, in effect, be the button once again. If the big blind is eliminated and is not replaced, the button moves to the player who was the small blind and the player to the left of the eliminated big blind posts the big blind. There is no small blind for that hand. If both blinds are eliminated and not replaced, the same player will be the button three hands in a row. The button moves to the empty seat (the seat vacated by the eliminated small blind player) and the player to the left of the eliminated big blind posts the big blind. There is no small blind for that hand. On the following hand, the button moves to the next empty seat (the seat vacated by the eliminated big blind player) and the two players to the left post the normal blinds. The button and blinds are placed normally for the following hand.
