Yes, the position is very important because it is easier to play from late positions and you can open more cards. It's easier to play from a late position because your last word and you see who did what before you is the main advantage. From an early position, I would not open many cards because it is very difficult to play with a bad card in such a situation.

I definitely agree with you. My favorite spot is the button.

Playing in position is one of the main strategies in Poker. In early positions you should reduce your range considerably, as if you call with speculative cards you may be surprised by aggressive plays from players in later positions and end up having to give up the hand after calling. In late positions you have an overview of the previous players' intentions and can more accurately predict the relative strength of their hand. This is essential to protect your stack.

You're right, so what?
It seems that you know more, but you don't want to tell us everything..... What else do you know, confess, who is your informant?

In part, yes, poker is complex and it is a sum of everything, but the position is very important for the hands

Congratulations on raising a very important discussion, that of position at the table. This factor makes you win a hand, without even having the nuts, simply by speaking last, for example!

Position in poker is like location in real estate.

It's not just valuable...it's the most important thing in any starting decision, Being last to act means we get more information, and in theory can play without mistakes. Position is arguably the most important part of the game.

position is the first important thing when you decide to play a hand

 

[christovam]

The position is extremely important. But when we're in hyper or Turbo tournaments, we find it hard to play good hands in position, which makes us bluff more often and run the risk of getting tribetted by the villain on the blinds.

Of course, playing the card when the opponent makes the decision first after the flop is always convenient for us.

Position is a bit overrated I think. Very good hole cards can lessen the importance of position in my experience.
