Position is one of the most important concepts in poker and is something that a lot of new players get completely wrong.
To put it simply:
Position Is Important. We recommended you use the standard poker hands odds chart below to familiarise yourself with hands that have the best chance of winning. This will help give you a. You make the most decisions preflop of any street. Learn how to play fundamentally sound poker preflop by signing up to get my preflop charts. I show you almost every scenario you will face. Learning how to play solid preflop is the first step towards becoming a winning player.
Position in poker refers to the order which players are allowed to act. A player who acts first is “out of position” while a player who acts last is “in position”. Playing in position gives a distinct advantage due to the extra information gained and the ability to more effectively control the size of the pot.
There are two scenarios to discuss regarding position: preflop and postflop.
During the preflop round of betting, you can either be playing from early, middle, late position or the blinds with further breakdowns depending on your exact seat (which we will get into in a moment).
While postflop, your actual seat doesn’t matter and it becomes much simpler because you are either “in position” if you act last, “out of position” if you act first or somewhere in between if there are more than two players in the pot.
The important thing to remember is that these two aspects are related. When you play from an early position preflop, you are more likely to have to play out of position postflop. Whereas if you play a hand from late position you are fairly likely (or in some cases guaranteed) to be playing in position for the rest of the hand.
The fact that your starting seat determines whether you are more or less likely to be playing in position postflop is a very important factor that drives our opening strategy quite significantly.
Let’s dig deeper into this and find out what the positions are on the table and why understanding position is so important to playing winning poker.
Table Of Contents
*What are the starting positions in poker?What are the starting positions in poker?
Each seat at the table is given a unique name which allows poker players to easily identify what hands they should be playing (more on that later) and how they might expect their opponents to play.
These seats are grouped into one of four categories:
*Early position
*Middle position
*Late position
*The blinds
The naming of the positions differs slightly depending on how many players are seated at your table, but let’s first take full-ring (9 handed) which is the most common casino format.
The image below shows the four categories we mentioned but also broken down further with the names of each seat.
In case you aren’t familiar with the acronyms, here’s what they stand for:
*UTG: Under the gun
*MP: Middle position
*HJ: Hijack
*CO: Cutoff
*BTN: Button
*SB: Small blind
*BB: Big blindEarly position
The first seat to act is referred to as under the gun and is located in early position. “Under the gun” is a term that means to be “under pressure to act” as in you are “being held at gunpoint”.
This translates to the analogy of the first seat at the poker table who is under pressure to make the opening decision of the freshly dealt hand.
On a full ring table with nine players in total, there are eight players waiting to act after UTG. So there is a strong likelihood that if you decide to play your hand, another player at the table will wake up with a premium hand.
Even if someone is dealt a mediocre hand and decides to play, you will be playing out of position on postflop unless they happen to be in the blinds.
Because of this, you must carefully select what hands you wish to play.
To illustrate this a little further, let’s imagine we would like to open 66 from UTG. To some, this may be a fairly standard open.
But consider the probability of that any one of these players has a strong or premium hand of 77+, AJs+, KQs, AQo+, KQo
This range represents 7.5% off all hands, and the probability of a player having one of these hands is shown below:Number of players on the table12345678Odds of a player having77+, AJs+, KQs, AQo+, KQo8%14%21%27%32%37%42%46%
So there is almost 50% chance some has a hand that is at least flipping with 66 and in many cases dominating. Pocket 66s only has 37% chance of winning if you were to go all-in versus that range, however, you will realise a lot less of that equity due to the likelihood of high card to your pair making it very difficult to play.
Equity realisation is a complicated subject which I won’t go into detail here on but PokerNerve has a great article on the topic which you can read here.
So the key takeaway:When there are many players still to act preflop, you need a very strong hand to even consider entering the pot.
Moving clockwise around the table, the next player to act is referred to as “under the gun plus one” or UTG+1. This seat plays very similarly to the UTG and hence these two positions are grouped into early position poker strategy.
Since there are only seven players left to act when opening from UTG+1, you can play slightly more hands. A typical opening range on a full ring table will be approximately 9% from UTG and 10% from UTG +1 which looks something like this:
These images are from a piece of software called Equilab which you can download for free here. This software allows you to save your ranges for later, turn percentage opens into actual hand ranges and calculate your equity versus another hand or range.Middle position
The next position category is middle position. From here you should still be playing fairly conservatively, however, you can open a few more combos of hands when compared to UTG since two players have already folded meaning it is less likely:
*That you will come up against a strong hand
*That you will be forced to play out of position postflop
MP+1 should also be played in a similar manner to MP, albeit with slightly looser starting hand requirements.
A typical opening range will be approximately 12% from MP and 16% for MP +1 as shown below:Late position
Following MP is late position which represents the three seats of hijack, cutoff and button.
We use individual names for each of these positions since they play quite differently and as a result, there is quite a large difference in strategy needed.
Although this might seem like a lot to take in at the moment, with all the different seat names and acronyms, you will have no problem remembering once you get in some practice. It completely automatic to me now and I don’t even have to think about it.
Hijack will play more hands than MP with a 19% opening range but it’s not until the cutoff and the button where we really start to open our range up. For example, in the cutoff we will like to open 26% or so of hands whereas on the button (OTB), we will open closer to 45% of hands if you are facing suitable players in the blinds.
Here is what the button opening rang might look like:
The reason for the stark adjustment in starting hands is because there are so few players left to act (either 3 for the cutoff, or 2 for the button) and if we do get action, we will be in position against the blinds.
Due to the fact that you will always act last on the button when playing postflop, it is considered the best and is almost always the most profitable seat on a poker table.The blinds
The blinds are a slightly different kettle of fish. Firstly, players in the blind have to put in a small “fee” before seeing their cards i.e. there are putting in money blind into the pot, hence the name.
Secondly, when playing from the blinds, you will mostly be reacting to other player’s raises as opposed to make them yourself. This forces you to use a different strategy than we have been using up until now – you must now start calling much more often, particularly from the big blind.
The Small Blind is the worst seat (as you will always act out of position and act with the least amount of information) and the Big Blind is the least profitable seat on the table as you have to put a whole big blind into the pot without even seeing your cards.
The two redeeming qualities of the big blind are that we already have 1 bb invested into the pot which means despite our positional disadvantage versus all seats except the SB, we will usually have the opportunity to “close the action” by calling and seeing the flop.
Closing the action means that we are guaranteed to realise some of our equity (potentially allowing us to hit a piece of the flop). The same can’t be said for the SB where if we call a raise, the Big Blind has the opportunity to reraise us with a squeeze and put us in a tough spot.
6-max tables generally play much more aggressively and in many ways can be thought of by just simply removing the first three seats from a full ring table.
However, the naming convention also changes somewhat i.e. the first player to act in a 6max table is still called under the gun (and not MP+1 as would be the case in a full ring table).
The naming convention for a 6max table is shown below.
For the difference between a fullring and 6max table strategy, see my article here on this topic.
Note that in a 10 handed table there is also an UTG+2 added before MP starts. In this case, UTG should play slightly tighter and on a 9-handed table.Poker Position Hand Chart:
Here is an example of how we would play pairs in a 6max game:
As shown, we should almost always play pairs since they are one of the best starting hand types. But with the other hand types, it is less cut and dry.

All poker players have been there. Short-stacked. Bleeding chips with every orbit while staring at junk hand after junk hand. Feeling their chances of winning the tournament dwindle ever further while their stack continues to shrink.
Finally, they get a halfway decent hand. Nobody has entered the pot.
Is it time to shove?
There’s an easy way to find out. Enter poker range charts. These handy tools allow players to see which poker hand ranges to play in preflop scenarios where the pot is unopened and a player plans to shove or fold.
Playing the proper ranges according to preflop charts make it so your play can’t be exploited, so memorizing these is the key to short-stacked play.

For those unfamiliar a poker hand range is simply a set of poker hands that may be held by a player. We try to estimate our opponents’ ranges because guessing exact hole cards is a fruitless, nearly impossible exercise in most cases.
For example, if the tightest player you’ve ever seen reraises you preflop in hold’em, you may estimate their range to be aces and kings only.
On the other hand, if a player who hasn’t folded one hand in an hour calls your raise, you may estimate their range to include any two cards in the deck. Of course, most hand ranges will be somewhere in between.How Do You Calculate Poker Ranges?
Analyzing ranges can be a tricky proposition, and only by learning game theory and playing thousands of hands can a poker player get better at it.
Including some proper proper preflop strategy in your poker training will help you understand what poker hand ranges they’ll play.
The more time you spend playing and watching opponents’ hands at showdown, the more clues you’ll get about their strategy. That will enable you to get more precise estimates of their ranges when playing future hands.Poker Range Chart
This video from poker pro Jonathan Little explores the concept in a little more depth and tries to answer the question ’how do I think in terms of hand ranges?’How to Use Preflop Range Charts
Every position at the poker table has a certain range of starting hands that can be profitably shoved at a given stack depth.
Generally, these stack depths are at 20 big blinds or less.
Preflop range charts outline the hands that constitute a winning shoving range.
A player who knows these charts can shove with a positive expected value (+EV) no matter what cards are held by the opponents remaining to act.
Here on PokerNews you find free preflop poker charts for five different stack depths at both six-max tables and nine-handed tables.
Here’s how to use them:
*Figure out how many big blinds you have in your stack.
*Go to the corresponding chart. If you have a stack that doesn’t match one exactly, pick the closest one.
*Go to the column that corresponds to your seat.
*Scroll down until you get to the row that corresponds to your hole cards — the chart starts with pairs at the top, then ace-high hands, then king-high and so on.
*You can shove all of the hands listed there, as well as any hands to the left that were shoved in an earlier seat.The New Bonuses are OUT!

Here are 10 essential poker charts to help your preflop poker game.
They’re broken into two categories: full-ring ranges and six-max ranges. Each category features shoving hands for five different stack sizes, raised in increments of three big blinds.
As you’ll often have stacks in between these sizes, it may take a small amount of guesswork and intuition to expand or tighten the ranges a bit and get the appropriate strategy.1. Full Ring Ranges Poker Charts2. Six-Max Ranges Poker ChartsUse the Printable Poker Charts on Excel!

These are optimal poker ranges for winning chips if your opponents are calling correctly. Each poker chart should be adjusted depending on reads you can gather when you play cash games or tournament poker.
*If your opponents are calling too wide, shove a little tighter so you’re more likely to have the best of it.
*If your opponents aren’t calling wide enough, widen your range of hands and shove a few extra hands because you are likely to be able to steal their blinds.
Considerations should also be made for the state of the poker tournament, i.e. proximity to the money bubble, a pay jump, or a final table.
These can heavily influence calling ranges and proper shoving strategy, changing the way you should play if you are using these poker charts to play winning poker.
Some bits of the poker ranges charts may look a bit weird, specifically in regard to suited ace-high hands.
This is because some of the small suited aces perform slightly better against calling ranges than middle aces. At certain stack depths and positions, it’s better to shove ace-five suited than ace-seven suited, for example.How to memorize poker ranges
Given that there are 169 different hands in Texas hold’em poker, differently sized tables, and slightly different shoving ranges for every stack depth, it’s unreasonable to think you’ll be able to perfectly memorize an exactly correct shoving strategy.
Furthermore, doing so would probably be counter-productive, as you’re better off dedicating your brainpower and efforts elsewhere.
Getting a rough idea of correct preflop poker ranges to shove will allow you to play well with a short stack while still improving your game in other aspects with your remaining study time.
There’s no handy acronym like ’Roy G. Biv’ (rainbow colors) or ’PEMDAS’ (order of mathematical operations) to help you remember the shoving strategy offered in all the preflop range charts on this page.
And despite what other poker guides and poker training sites say, the purpose of poker charts like these ones is not to have you memorise everything. That’s not how you will improve your win rate.
The best way to learn is to make your shoves and then continually check afterward whether it was correct. Eventually, the raising ranges will start to take shape in your memory.
Here are a few poker tips to keep in mind:
*Pairs are great to jam with. If you’re under 10 big blinds, you can almost jam with any pair from any position. With such a small stack, waiting for top pairs is not a good idea.
*If your cards are unpaired, it’s obviously preferable to have high suited cards.
*Small suited hands lose a lot of value in preflop shoving situations compared to their deep-stacked playability. Many hands wind up unimproved by the river, so the higher cards will win in these spots.
*Still, hands with a high card and low card (something like king-five offsuit) might be favored against something like ten-nine suited in a head-to-head clash, but the latter performs better against opponents’ calling hands, so it’s preferable to shove with.
*
The biggest jumps in shoving range will come the closer you get to the big blind — i.e., the difference between shoving in the first two seats is far less than the difference in shoving between the button and small blind.
This is because one extra fold represents a much bigger portion of the remaining opponents, meaning the likelihood of running into a big hand has decreased more significantly. So, get comfortable shoving very wide in the small blind and still quite wide from the button and cutoff.Most Common Preflop Ranges

Given that there are 169 different hands in Texas hold’em poker, differently sized tables, and slightly different shoving ranges for every stack depth, it’s unreasonable to think you’ll be able to perfectly memorize an exactly correct shoving strategy.
Furthermore, doing so would probably be counter-productive, as you’re better off dedicating your brainpower and efforts elsewhere.
Getting a rough idea of correct preflop poker ranges to shove will allow you to play well with a short stack while still improving your game in other aspects with your remaining study time.
There’s no handy acronym like ’Roy G. Biv’ (rainbow colors) or ’PEMDAS’ (order of mathematical operations) to help you remember the shoving strategy offered in all the preflop range charts on this page.
And despite what other poker guides and poker training sites say, the purpose of poker charts like these ones is not to have you memorise everything. That’s not how you will improve your win rate.
The best way to learn is to make your shoves and then continually check afterward whether it was correct. Eventually, the raising ranges will start to take shape in your memory.
Here are a few poker tips to keep in mind:
*Pairs are great to jam with. If you’re under 10 big blinds, you can almost jam with any pair from any position. With such a small stack, waiting for top pairs is not a good idea.
*If your cards are unpaired, it’s obviously preferable to have high suited cards.
*Small suited hands lose a lot of value in preflop shoving situations compared to their deep-stacked playability. Many hands wind up unimproved by the river, so the higher cards will win in these spots.
*Still, hands with a high card and low card (something like king-five offsuit) might be favored against something like ten-nine suited in a head-to-head clash, but the latter performs better against opponents’ calling hands, so it’s preferable to shove with.

The biggest jumps in shoving range will come the closer you get to the big blind — i.e., the difference between shoving in the first two seats is far less than the difference in shoving between the button and small blind.
This is because one extra fold represents a much bigger portion of the remaining opponents, meaning the likelihood of running into a big hand has decreased more significantly. So, get comfortable shoving very wide in the small blind and still quite wide from the button and cutoff.Most Common Preflop Ranges

If you run into a very tight opponent, expect here or she to be opening something like the top 7% of hands from early or even middle position. Only the tightest ranges will play this way.
