Is this a glitch in the software?

Hopefully someone can explain this to me. Essentially we're 3 handed here (the guy who's sat out has literally just done so).

I assumed, that as I was on the button I would have position throughout the hand but I realised on the flop that I was actually trying to play this out of position which completely threw me out of my stride.

Has this happened to anyone else or is there a perfectly good explanation for this that I don't know about? Surely player 2 in the big blind should be first to act post flop?

p.s. FWIW I'm not at all bothered by the outcome of the hand but thought I'd post it up so people could see what I mean (having said that most of the time I'm generally playing this differently OOP though!).

Yes, that looks like a "glitch" in the software to me.
As you say, in HU (as the player on the button) you should be first to act pre-flop but second to act on all the other rounds of betting.
My guess is that the software got "confused" by the third player (in the nominal small button seat) sitting out.
Normally in HU, the button would post the small blind but no small blind has been posted on this hand.

Pretty sure I had this recently. I was multi-tabling so let it pass but it did happen after a player left the table.

Is this something you could look into? I know it's not a major problem but all the same
