Holdem is all about individuals and position. All rounded Holdem players agree that position in no cap Texas Holdem is critically important. Playing your hole cards in last position could be a whole lot more profitable than in early poker position. This is because much more information is assembled prior to acting.

e.g., I was playing a $1-$2 no limit money round at a local poker room. I came in holding 2, 9 unsuited on the croupier button, just to see some action. Flop arrived A-A-4. A gambler in early position placed a $15 wager. 2 players drop out and it was my turn to act. I should have folded, but something appear to be a bit off. I labeled this person as a weak-tight bettor, and typically if he had the number one hand he would just check, so I called.

The turn arrived with a 7, making it A-A-4-7. My opposer placed an additional wager of $20. I deliberated a tiny bit, but took a chance to re-raise a further $30thirty dollars on top of his $20. He dropped out and I take the money.

Sitting at last spot gives you an insight into where you are positioned by seeing how other enthusiasts carry oneself and bet. On the flip side, individuals at early position may use their poker position to check-raise the last seated antagonists and trap them later at the end. In Texas Holdem, both ends, late and starting should be played carefully.
