INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Early position, or the seats to the left of the dealer, requires a conservative player, because when you bet in early position you’re betting before anyone else does. Early position players have to decide whether they want to bet, check, fold, or raise without seeing what the other players are going to do.  When you’re sitting in early position, only play the best hands. If you’re in early position, be careful with bluffing or other “fake outs” because you don’t yet have a sense of what the other players have. Middle position has the advantage of seeing how the early position players bet, but the disadvantage of playing before the late position players bet. While you can play looser in middle position than in early position, remain cautious and don’t try to be too fancy.  Unlike early position, where you shouldn’t play anything but the best hands, you can play mediocre hands in middle position, but avoid playing truly awful hands or going for long bluffs. Remember that while you have a sense of the table based on early position, someone in late position could surprise you. Plan accordingly. Late position, which is also called betting position, gives you the best information before betting. Adapt whether or not you bet, call, fold, or check based on what others at the table have done.  You can play relatively bad hands in this position. For example, if you’re playing Texas Hold’em and there are only a few low bets on the table and you have a mediocre hand like a pair of 7s, late position is a good place to play that hand. Conversely, you might also want to fold a good hand in late position if you think someone who came earlier is going to beat that hand. If no one at the table has bet, late position players can win by simply betting.

SUMMARY: Play conservatively in early position. Remain cautious in middle position. Leverage your late position for more playing power.
