What are 'Win the Button' tournaments?

'Win the Button' tournaments give the dealer button to the player who wins the previous pot.

 

How does the 'Win the Button' format work?

The player who wins a hand receives the dealer button for the next hand.

This changes the normal rotation of the button.

 

How is this different from regular tournaments?

You can receive the button more often than in standard games.

You may also be in the blinds more often if other players win consecutive pots.

 

Does the format stay the same throughout the tournament?

Some tournaments switch back to standard button movement later in the event.
