Blind Robber
A blind robber is a player who steals the blinds by raising with a weak hand.
The simple explanation
A blind robber is a player who steals the blinds. He raises, usually from late position, without a strong hand, hoping the players in the blinds will fold. If they do, he wins the small and big blinds without having to play the hand.
A closer look
Blind stealing works because the blinds are out of position and often fold too much. A blind robber chooses a good moment: usually when everyone has folded to the button or the cutoff, so only the blinds can stop the raise. If the blinds defend, the robber has to decide whether to give up or continue. Opponents who notice a player who raises every time it is folded to him can punish him with re-raises.
A practical example
Everyone folds to the button, who raises with a weak hand. The blinds fold, and the button wins the blinds.
Full explanation
A blind robber is a player who steals the blinds by raising with a weak hand.
A blind robber is a player who steals the blinds, usually from the middle blind position or from the dealer position. He opens the pot without good cards and hopes the blinds will throw their hands away.
The goal is to win the chips represented by the blinds, and the antes if there are any, without playing the hand. The amount is small, but it adds up over many hands.
The play is related to the blind steal, which is the action itself, and to blind defense, which is the answer to it.
A good blind robber chooses his spots. Raising from late position when everyone has folded and the blinds are tight is far more profitable than raising from early position.
