Also if I set BB bet to 51 I'm getting a negative value... why?
On the turn Button invests $25 into his call. This leads him to a spot on the river where his EV is $24.95. So, given that he invested $25 to make $24.95, this comes down to a loss of 5 cents.
To be fair though, it basically seems breakeven to me. I don't know what math you have used to assume it would be exactly breakeven, but possibly you were using rake, which very slightly altered the numbers?

I suppose the example above is a fairly straightforward example here. BB invests $25 to get into a $24.95 spot, thus losing 5 cents.
