Holdem is all about players and position. All experienced Hold’em players agree that position in no limit Texas Holdem is fundamentally important. Playing your hole cards in last spot may be certainly more profitable than in starting poker spot. This is due to the fact that much more info is collected right before acting.

e.g., I played in a $1-$2 no limit cash match at a local casino. I came in holding 2, 9 unsuited on the dealer marker, just to partake in some action. Flop came down A-A-4. An individual in early position laid a $15 wager. Two entrants fold and it was now my turn. I should have folded, but something appear to be a bit odd. I labeled this individual as a weak-tight person, and normally if he held the number one hand he would just check, so I called.

The turn showed with a 7, making it A-A-4-7. My competitor placed an additional bet of $20. I debated a little bit, but took a chance to re-raise an additional $30thirty dollars on top of his twenty dollars. He folds and I take the money.

Wagering at last spot offers you an idea where you are positioned by watching how entrants behave and wager. On the other hand, individuals at starting spot could use their poker spot to check-raise the late positioned aggressors and trap them later at the end. In Texas Hold’em, both spots, last and early must be bet cautiously.
