One little oddity I want to point out here:<br/><br/>If the blinds were just normal bets of 1 chip and a raise to 2 chips, we'd stop as soon as betting got back around to the last person to raise (Ariel, in this case) and she wouldn't have a chance to raise again, though she could re-raise if someone raised on her.  However, since the blinds are forced, she never got a chance to raise higher than 2 chips.  Because of that, now she has a chance to raise if she wants.  Or she can simply check her own bet and we can deal the flop.
