Default Re: button progression

its the diffrence between a foward moving button and a dead button rule.
Most card rooms use a dead button rule. Meaning if seat 1 is the button and seat 3 is eliminated , the next button is seat 2 with a "dead small" after which the button moves to seat 3 and becomes a "dead button" thus seat 4 doesnt miss a blind.
Stars uses a foward moving button in tournaments , and a dead button in ring games.

The fwd moving button keeps moving no matter what the action, if the sb or bb gets eliminated the button moves onto the next person no matter if they will miss a blind or not.
