Button use in cash games. Moving button, Dead button or variation??

(1/2) > >>

Hello there,

I am looking to host a cash game and was wondering what would be the best method to use for a home cash game? Dead button seems easier to understand and I sort of understand the moving button but I get confused when it comes to multiple players eliminated or down to less than 5 players.

I have heard someone else say that in Vegas poker rooms, they use a variation to where the button just moves to the next player like a forward moving button rule but with the same blinds posted like dead button? Is he right? Would this be more logical to use?

Any thoughts? If someone could explain the forward moving button rule please also that would be great!

As far as I can remember, Las Vegas always uses the dead button rule.

The moving button might be easier to use when multiple players are knocked out of a hand.

I have a great diagram that makes it simple to follow. When I find it, I will post it.

It sometimes requires two small blinds.

Hi Nick,

Thanks for your reply. Would you say that moving button is better for cash games then? That link you sent me doesn’t work, it just opens up my Yahoo mail. Is there another way you could send it please?

Thanks.
