in your position. I have a couple of buddy that will play only aa, kk, qq (carefully), in early position. other than that they may play their blinds. Never betting. They seem to play creative hands in late position, but never in early position. It works for them, I have been trying their style and it seems to work fairly well. Hence, Position can beat good cards. What do you think?

Not if one learns patience, and power. Without those 2 position is absolutely meaningless. Because a top 10 hand with a 4-5X BB raise even when in the blind would make any player even on the button have to have a good hand just to call.

as the saying goes

in limit poker position is everything, in nolimit poker its the only thing

of course thats a vast generalisation but paying more attention to position should improve results

being last to act gives you so much more information than going first, the more info you have over the others, the bigger the advantage

Position should play some role in every one of your decisions at the poker table...

The power of position is the way to play poker.
Thats why some people lose and some win
it depends on how you play it
