Cannot get button_pressed event to work with state condition

I have tried to get the automation config listed, working with a state condition, but I did not succeed, Did read a lot of posts and documentation. What I want to establish is change the UP button action on the remote acting like a DOWN button (state= closed) if the last press was an UP also (State=open) .
my code:

   - alias: 'Steren remote Up'     #   Up button 
     trigger:
       - platform: event
         event_type: button_pressed
         event_data:
           entity_id: cover.55_study_blind  
           state: 'up'             # this is what the event data lists
     condition:                       # when I leave the condition section out, action is executed
         condition: state             # when included that section, action is not executed
         entity_id: cover.55_study_blind
         state: 'open'                # this is what developer tool list as the state
     action:
       - service: notify.notify
         data:
          message: pressed but.{{trigger.event.data.state}} in remoteUp
