Big blind (BB)
The big blind is the larger of the two forced bets, and the unit that stacks and bets are measured in.
A stack of 100 bb means one hundred big blinds. The player in the big blind acts last before the flop and first after it, and can call raises cheaply because part of the price is already paid.
