In the card game Sheepshead, the blind are the cards face down on the table after the initial deal. No one knows what is in the blind until it is picked up.

Once a player picks the blind, that person becomes "The Picker".

If you are playing a leaster, the blind often will go to the person taking the last trick.

Hoyle refers to the blind as the "widow", but that usage is not common.
