small blind

The first forced bet in Texas Hold 'Em poker and other similar poker games. The small blind is generally equal to one-half the minimum bet rounded up to the nearest chippable value (e.g. with 100/500 chips, and big blind equal to 500, the small blind would have to be 300 instead of 250).

The small blind was already half of my chips, so I had to go all in, even though I had the W.H.I.P.
