Texas Holdem is all about players and arrangement. All rounded Texas Hold’em players agree that arrangement in no limit Texas Hold’em is critically important. Showing your hole cards in last position can be a great deal more beneficial than in starting poker position. The reason because much more information is collected right before acting.

e.g., I played in a $1-$2 no limit cash game at a local poker room. I limped in with 2, 9 unsuited on the croupier marker, just to partake in some action. Flop came down A-A-4. A gambler in early spot placed a $15 wager. Two players fold and it was now my turn to act. I should have dropped out, but his betting felt a tiny bit off. I labeled this person as a weak-tight guy, and usually 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 opposer laid another bet of $20. I hesitated a little bit, but decided to re-raise an additional $30thirty dollars on top of his twenty dollars. He dropped out and I take the money.

Wagering at late position allows you an idea where you are positioned by watching how other players behave and wager. On the other hand, players at starting position could use their poker spot to check-raise the last positioned aggressors and trap them later at the end. In Hold’em, each ends, late and early must be wagered cautiously.
