Position - all in poker!

Your position on the table itself is an advantage or disadvantage depending on where you stand. It is a very important part of your strategy , which means that you must play the same hands differently depending on their position on the table.

Below in this article has useful tips on how to play if you are the first position, ie if you are just after the big blind, or if you are the best - last position (dealer). The worst position in which you may be a poker table is the first position. It is called "under the gun" (under fire). This is because you're the first one to take action without having the opportunity to analyze the actions of their opponents in advance. Thus they can easily interpret your own. Very common situation is to turn the game with a weak hand and one of your opponents to raise the stake that forces you to cancel or to risk too much.

How to play when you are "under the gun"?

Play quietly and patiently. Wait a very good starting hand and when you get this ... you have two options.

The first is to raise your bet immediately - this will make most of your opponents to fold. This approach shows the power.

Your second option is to pay the big blind without raising the stakes, but do it only when you have a very good starting hand. Is less risky because it is very likely that other players also participate in the game, even one of them to raise the stakes. This of course means that when a flop open in the deal will involve many more players than if you were raised a bet from the start. If you have a compelling pair and flop a risk is not time to push your opponents with a significant raise (raise the bet). If you commanding pair likely to lose a big hand especially if it involves more players. In this case, better to opt out if they raise feeds are too big. No bluffing, because at the outset of the game that you showed your hand is not strong without paying blind-raise net.

You will find that the closer you are to the first item on the table, the more carefully must play. Approaching the last position will play more often and more aggressively.

. Another advantage is that you can safely turn off only to see a flop or you can bluff and raise net, only to retract the blinds.

How to play when you last position?

Play aggressively! That's the best position in the game for several reasons. In the first round of betting almost all players act before you, which enables you to judge strength of their hands. Thus decide whether to join the game or to cancel without losing money

Unlike the first items on the table, that allows you to play more hands and take more risks. No need to wait for an amazing hand. Take advantage of the uncertainty of his opponents. If the blinds are high, press and lift your opponents bets. The more the better bet it is possible to collect all the blinds.

Alternatively, if you have a strong hand to pay just blind or the first round of betting to aggressive approaches and then to the next are more timid to delusions that bluff your opponents. So they will think that you just tried to put the blinds and do not really strong hand.

There's a third option for a game that combines the above two and is quite risky. Holding a weak hand, raise the bet to try to "steal" the blinds. If this does not work - bluff. Try to deceive his opponents as a flop, and wait and then make a new raise. So you can win, and that two maps in your hand.

You will find that last item on the table allows you to play more frequently and aggressively. But opponents if you do not give up easily regardless of how aggressively you play better to opt out. No need to bluff all the way if you feel that your opponents are strong.
