In poker, "on the button" refers to the player who is currently sitting in the dealer position. This position is advantageous because the player in this position gets to act last after seeing how all the other players have acted. Being "on the button" means that the betting action starts with the small blind position on the button's immediate left, followed by the big blind, and then the other players in clockwise order. The dealer button is a marker used to indicate the player who is dealing or, in casino games with a house dealer, the player who acts last on that deal (who would be the dealer in a home game). In casino and card room cash games, the dealer's well may contain an assortment of laminated discs that the dealer may place in front of a player's seat under certain conditions. The term "button" can also refer to the dealer position in general.
