  So we're playing 3 handed and then some one busts out, who is the button? This is something I've never quite totally undertood as different sites seem to do it differently
  
  Normally it obviously goes
  BTN -> BB
  SB -> BTN
  BB -> SB
  
  SB busts theres no BTN so a dead BTN?
  BB busts theres no SB so BB only?
  BTN busts so theres no BB, so is the BTN the BB as well, then next hand hes SB & BTN again?
  
  SB & BB busting seem logical just not really sure about when teh BTN busts
  
  Thanks

  Hey slippyjim,
  
  It does seem to depend on the room. I have never seen it at Stars but have seen dead blinds or buttons at iPoker.
  
  Regards

  Yeah sometimes I've seen HU with BB only, and others where a player is the BU and BB and then next hand is the BU again but SB as normal.
  
  I was wondering more for my home games, but I guess if we just do the same everytime no one can complain
