Holdem is all about people and position. All experienced Holdem enthusiasts agree that seating in no cap Hold'em is critically important. Playing your hole cards in late position could be certainly more beneficial than in starting poker spot. The reason because much more information is collected before acting.

i.e., I was playing a $1-$2 no limit money match at a local spot. I came in with 2, 9 unsuited on the croupier button, so I could see some action. Flop arrived A-A-4. A person in starting position made a $15 wager. 2 individuals drop out and it was my turn. I should have folded, but his play seemed a little odd. I ID'd this individual as a weak-tight bettor, and normally if he held the best hand he would just check, so I called.

The turn arrived with a 7, meaning it was a A-A-4-7. My competitor laid an additional wager of $20. I deliberated for a while, but took a chance to re-raise an additional $30thirty dollars on top of his twenty dollars. He folds and I won the cash.

Betting at late spot provides you an insight into where you sit by watching how other entrants behave and bet. On the other hand, individuals at starting position may use their poker spot to check-raise the late seated antagonists and corner them later at the end. In Holdem, each ends, late and starting should be wagered carefully.
