Texas Hold'em is all about players and arrangement. All rounded Hold'em players agree that seating in no cutoff Texas Hold'em is fundamentally important. Playing your hole cards in late position could be certainly more profitable than in early poker position. This is because much more information is assembled right before acting.

e.g., I played in a $1-$2 no limit cash match at a local spot. I limped in holding 2, 9 unsuited on the dealer button, just to see a bit of fun. Flop came down A-A-4. A person in early spot laid a fifteen dollar wager. Two entrants drop out and it was my turn to act. I really should have dropped out, but his play seemed a tiny bit off. I ID'd this person as a weak-tight individual, and normally if he had the biggest hand he would simply check, so I called.

The turn arrived with a 7, making it A-A-4-7. My opponent placed a further bet of $20. I deliberated a little bit, but took a chance to re-raise a further $30thirty dollars over and above his $20. He dropped out and I won the money.

Wagering at last spot allows you an idea where you stand by studying how entrants behave and wager. On the other hand, people at starting spot can use their poker spot to check-raise the late positioned aggressors and trap them later at the end. In Texas Holdem, both spots, last and early must be bet carefully.
