Pairing with blocked player in tournament?

If someone has blocked a player, will he get paired with him in a tournament?
I think you get paired automatically, no matter your settings.
In OTB tournaments, what do you think happens when you do not want to play with a particular player?
Thanks for your thought, Toscani. My question is related to the lichess tournament set-up only. It might be that the tournament parameters consider individual blockings and subsequently do not pair. Since this is a situation which occurs very seldom, it might be negligible.
Someone asked this question before, the pairings are unaffected by blockings they answered.
