In poker, the 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). The button is also referred to as the dealer position, and the player holding the button is known as the dealer. The button is typically a white plastic disc with the word "Dealer" on each side). The dealer button is the most advantageous position to be in, as it is last to act post-flop. The two players to the left of the dealer are known as the small blind and big blind, respectively. The button moves around the table in a clockwise direction, indicating the nominal dealer for that hand. In most home games, the player holding the dealer button deals the cards, while in a casino or cardroom, an employee handles this responsibility).
