Position Music – The Name
At a casino poker table there is a physical dealer that doesn’t play in the game. He or she deals on your behalf, which is indicated by the "dealer button." The button rotates to your left each hand. Your position to the dealer is a significant factor you consider in every hand of poker you are dealt. Where you are in position often determines how or whether you will play a hand. To be the dealer on a hand means you are in last position, the best place to be. Being in the dealer position means you have more information to act upon in that hand than everybody else at the table. You are able to see who and how people bet before you have to act. You are often able to make plays based on that information. There are hands you will raise with good position, where as you may fold that same hand in early position. Having Position in your favor is an asset.
