Texas Hold’em is all about individuals and position. All rounded Hold’em players agree that seating in no limit Texas Holdem is critically important. Playing your hole cards in last spot will be certainly more beneficial than in early poker position. This is seeing that a lot more data is amassed before acting.

i.e., I was playing a $1-$2 no limit cash game at a local spot. I came in with 2, 9 unsuited on the dealer button, so I could see a little fun. Flop arrived A-A-4. A player in early spot made a $15 bet. 2 individuals fold and it was my turn. I really should have dropped out, but his betting seemed a little odd. I labeled this player as a weak-tight individual, and usually if he held the strongest hand he would only check, so I called.

The turn showed with a 7, making it A-A-4-7. My opponent placed another bet of $20. I debated for a while, but decided to re-raise an additional $30thirty dollars on top of his $20. He folds and I won the cash.

Gambling at late spot allows you an idea where you stand by studying how gamblers behave and wager. On the flip side, gamblers at early spot could use their poker position to check-raise the late seated aggressors and corner them afterwords at the end. In Hold’em, both spots, late and early should be played cautiously.
