Texas Hold’em is simply about people and seating. All knowledgeable Hold’em players agree that seating in no cap Texas Holdem is fundamentally important. Playing your hole cards in last position may be much more profitable than in starting poker position. This is because much more information is amassed right before acting.
For example, I was playing a $1-$2 no limit money round at a local poker room. I limped in with 2, 9 unsuited on the croupier marker, just to partake in a little action. Flop arrived A-A-4. An individual in early spot made a fifteen dollar bet. Two players drop out and it was now my turn. I should have folded, but his play felt a little odd. I labeled this player as a weak-tight bettor, and normally if he had the strongest hand he would simply check, so I called.
The turn came down with a 7, meaning it was a A-A-4-7. My opponent laid an additional wager of $20. I debated for a while, but made a decision to re-raise another $30thirty dollars on top of his $20. He folds and I take the chips.
Betting at late spot provides you an idea where you stand by studying how entrants behave and wager. On the other hand, individuals at starting spot can use their poker spot to check-raise the last seated antagonists and trap them afterwords at the end. In Texas Hold’em, each ends, late and early must be played cautiously.
