What would you guys say the best position plays are in general or at the stakes I play (micro mtt's). I know all the positions (SB, BB, UTG1, UTG2, MP1, MP2, HJ, CO & Button). I've been playing on and off for years (know the basics pretty well) and I tend to notice little things sometimes such as people limping in early position with suited connecters or if they do get involved from early position, its usually with a big hand: such as two high cards or a pair (well it depends on there tendencies, but most the time). But what about middle position and late position guys, I understand people can be trying to steal the blinds or betting if there's no one in front just because its the button (which I do a lot of the time, but sometimes I don't because its obviously I'm just making a move because its the button). I also find late position people are a lot looser too. But what kind of hands in different positions to you guy come against the most? And how should I react/proceed in different positions? I'm trying to gain a better understanding of position and break out of just the basic knowledge.. so any advice is definitely welcome (basic or complex).

I'm a pretty new player, but I feel like I've got a good grasp on what you're asking, if I say something wrong then someone please correct me.

Basic concept of playing early positions tighter is that you risk being 3bet with a hand that you should fold to a 3bet, such as QJo UTG and being 3bet by UTG+1 with no past history of play. In a full ring game you also have 6 people behind you who if they call, will be in position against you post-flop, and playing OOP is -EV in general (I don't know if you are familiar with EV, but -EV basically means: losing chips in a given situation in the long run), so you only want to play your strongest hands in order to play +EV from early position. This is why you see stronger hands being played from UTG etc., it is because hands that you would happily open on the button if it folds to you (such as QJo), would be an easy fold UTG.

As you said, you often notice people limping suited connectors or small pairs, especially in early position. These hands are played for their implied odds, meaning that they aren't usually the best hand, but when they are, you hope to get a lot of value from your opponent, and possibly their whole stack. There are many reasons why limping these hands are bad:

Lets say you're on the button with 5 6 , and everyone before you has folded. You should raise, for three reasons:

You deny the big blind his equity by not being able to see a flop for free.

You might possibly steal the blinds if SB and BB folds.

You conceal the strength of your hand, so that every once in a while when the flop comes 7 8 4 , you could have nearly anything, and villain will often put you on weaker holdings than you actually have.

this also applies for when you open a small pocket pair and flop a set, you can reveal the strength of your hand through your actions, but it's very well hidden and in microstakes mtt's it will often get you paid (speaking from experience, especially in knockout tourneys).

Position is fairly basic, but what makes things interesting is how positional advantage changes with table dynamics, this is especially prevalent in MTT's, where effective stack sizes change constantly. Let's say you're on the button with K 10 , everyone folds to the cutoff, who opens 2.2 BB. Normally this will be a call, but from playing about 100 hands against cutoff, we know that he opens very wide, and also calls 3bets way too wide, and tends to fold to a cbet if he doesn't hit top pair or better. In this case, we should 3bet for value, since we often have the best hand, and we can isolate him so that we play in pots with him alone. So let's say we 3bet with a size that we think he will call, 7BB for example, he calls and we see a flop, which comes:

7 2 A

As we have seen, Villain will only continue with top pair, so when he opens any high card hands (J2+, Q2+, K2+, A2+, 22+) and calls 3bets, this flop rarely hits him, and even if he paired with the 2 or the 7, he will not call a bet thinking that we MUST have the ace. We bet half pot and he folds. Remember that this is a fictional situation, but you will be in many like it.
To sum up: we value 3bet, and try to bluff him off of the best hand on the flop.

Positional advantag isn't static, but changes based on who else you're playing against, their stack size and previous behavior.

Thanks for the advice, appreciate it
