There are basically three positions: early position (when player is in first, second or third place), middle position (when player is in fourth, fifth or sixth place), and late position (when player is in seventh, eight, ninth…). Position plays a vital role in the game. Player in late position has more advantage than the player in the early position as he has good time to watch his opponents move before deciding his own. Worse pocket cards can become good in late position whereas good can be worse in early position.
