Texas Holdem is all about people and position. All experienced Texas Hold'em players concur that position in no cutoff Texas Hold'em is critically important. Playing your hole cards in last spot may be certainly more profitable than in starting poker spot. This is because a lot more information is assembled before acting.

e.g., I was playing a $1-$2 no limit money match at a local poker room. I bumbled in with 2, 9 unsuited on the croupier button, just to partake in some action. Flop came down A-A-4. A player in starting position made a fifteen dollar wager. 2 individuals fold and it was now my turn to act. I really should have dropped out, but something appear to be a little odd. I identified this person as a weak-tight individual, and normally if he held the best hand he would just check, so I called.

The turn arrived with a 7, making it A-A-4-7. My opposer laid another bet of $20. I deliberated for a while, but took a chance to re-raise a further $30thirty dollars over and above his $20. He dropped out and I take the chips.

Playing late position provides you an idea where you sit by watching how other entrants carry oneself and bet. On the other hand, gamblers at early spot might use their poker spot to check-raise the last seated aggressors and trap them later at the end. In Texas Holdem, each ends, late and starting should be played cautiously.
