BARGE Rulebook

Win the Button

Win the Button is a variation of a poker tournament where the player who wins the hand receives the button for the subsequent hand. Thus, the button does not rotate as typical and players can end up paying (or not paying) blinds several hands in a row. If there is a chopped pot won by two or more players, the winning player in the worst position on that hand receives the button for the next hand. This variation is typically not used in split-pot games.
