Texas Holdem is just about players and arrangement. All knowledgeable Holdem players agree that position in no limit Hold'em is critically important. Playing your hole cards in last spot can be much more beneficial than in early poker position. This is seeing that much more data is amassed prior to acting.

e.g., I was playing a $1-$2 no limit cash game at a local casino. I limped in holding 2, 9 unsuited on the dealer marker, just to partake in a little action. Flop arrived A-A-4. A bettor in early position made a fifteen dollar wager. Two entrants drop out and it was my turn to act. I should have dropped out, but his action felt a bit odd. I ID'd this contender as a weak-tight guy, and normally if he held the number one hand he would only 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 a further $30thirty dollars over and above his twenty dollars. He dropped out and I take the pot.

Sitting at last spot offers you an idea where you are positioned by seeing how other players behave and bet. On the flip side, people at starting position could use their poker spot to check-raise the late seated antagonists and trap them afterwords at the end. In Texas Hold'em, both ends, late and early must be wagered carefully.
