Title: Are you allowed to join the table on the button? Post by: johnbhoy76 on October 09, 2008, 02:56:50 PM was playing in my local casino at the weekend when one of the tables got broke up and a guy who moved to our table sat down at the seat where the button was going to be for the next hand.
My understanding is that he sits out this hand and comes in on the next hand Title: Re: Are you allowed to join the table on the button? Post by: the sicilian on October 09, 2008, 02:58:01 PM you cant come in on the button or SB... has to pass u b4 u get a hand

16. New players to a table as a result of balancing tables are dealt in immediately unless they are in the small blind or button position, where they must wait until the button has passed to the player on their left.

the only seat you can never join and be dealt in is between the button and the sb, all cardrooms will make you wait in this position Title: Re: Are you allowed to join the table on the button?

you dont pay any ante but you are first to act preflop and post flop after the hand the button moved past you Title: Re: Are you allowed to join the table on the button?
