In most standard poker games, a player who has missed their blind is not allowed to check when it is their turn to act. When a player is required to post a blind (either the small blind or big blind) and they miss it, they are typically required to make up the missed blind before being allowed to participate in further betting or checking.

If a player misses their blind, they will usually have the option to post the missed blind and enter the hand at that point. If they choose not to post the missed blind, their hand will be folded, and they will have to wait for the next hand to be dealt.

Once the missed blind is posted, the player can then act accordingly when it is their turn. They can choose to check if no other bets have been made, or they can choose to bet or raise if they desire.
 
In some cases, a missed blind may be treated as a normal bet or raise if the player chooses to post it after their turn to act. This means that they will not have the option to check and must either bet or fold.

It's important to note that the rules regarding missed blinds can vary depending on the specific poker variation and the house rules of the casino or poker room you are playing in. It is always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the specific rules before playing in any game.

In summary, a player who has missed their blind is typically not allowed to check when it is their turn to act. They must either post the missed blind and participate in further betting, or fold their hand and wait for the next hand to be dealt. However, the exact rules may vary, so it's always best to know the specific rules of the game you are playing.
 
In most poker games, a player cannot check behind after a missed blind. If a player misses posting the blinds, they typically need to make up for it by posting both the small blind and big blind in the next hand or waiting for the blinds to reach them. Checking behind implies an action in a betting round, and missing blinds usually involves a separate procedure to rectify the missed payments
 
a player cant check behind after missing the blind. Once you miss paying the blind, you are usually required to make up for it before joining the game. Its a basic rule to keep the game fair for everyone and ensure everyone contribute to the pot.
 
When a player returns to the table, they can choose to post the amount they missed in the blind. They are not, however, permitted to check the current hand's odds or to place bets.
 
I think if you're referring to whether a player can choose to check or raise even though they missed their blind, the answer is no. Unless they have made up their missed blind, they are not allowed to participate in the current hand.
