The problem is.............

that you and the vast majority dont understand poker.

Playing NL holdem, position is extremely powerful in heads up pots.
Thats the reason why every player wins more from the button than virtually any other position.
(if they dont they are seriously bad)

Acting after someone is a huge advantage in virtually every form of poker, that the whole reason the button moves around the table in flop games.

- I think it was the poker analogy people disagreed with rather than the advantage of (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 18:55:22
  - The poker analogy is OK. (NCFC) - usacanary, Apr 17, 19:03:02
    - you're an absolute fucking cock (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Apr 17, 19:30:10
    - I think we do have an advantage playing on Sunday but I don't see the correlation with (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:11:40
      - The problem is............. (NCFC) - usacanary, Apr 17, 19:25:39

        Whenever I've played poker I lose. I like playing cards for fun, betting is too intense (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:29:39
        
        Fair enough. (NCFC) - usacanary, Apr 17, 19:47:42
        
        that's cos they don't fucking play poker (NCFC) - SCC 28, Apr 17, 19:48:46
      - acting last is a major advantage in poker (NCFC) - Charles21, Apr 17, 19:19:15
        
        I don't really play poker mainly other card games but shirley because the order changes (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:22:59
        
        the changing order is so that it remains fair (NCFC) - Charles21, Apr 17, 19:26:02
        
        No I get that. I dunno I hate poker, not really sure why I entered the debate (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:31:01
        
        excellent, which teams? (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Apr 17, 19:32:25
        
        but the analogy is useless (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Apr 17, 19:19:32
    - depends what info you have (NCFC) - Charles21, Apr 17, 19:05:11
      - I lacked the poker knowledge to properly frame that very question (NCFC) - Sugbad The Bad, Apr 17, 19:06:38
    - Where does the 'sugar' bit come from, by the way? (n/m) (NCFC) - Sugbad The Bad, Apr 17, 19:03:49
      - Are you Bob Mould? (n/m) (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:17:24
        
        I'm growing some mould in a private area, if that counts? (n/m) (NCFC) - Sugbad The Bad, Apr 17, 19:18:15
        
        Fungus? (n/m) (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:19:07
      - ignore this guy (NCFC) - Charles21, Apr 17, 19:06:27
        
        No, I won't, not immediately anyway (NCFC) - Sugbad The Bad, Apr 17, 19:08:14
        
        Suggers you retard (n/m) (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:12:36
        
        Allowed (NCFC) - Sugbad The Bad, Apr 17, 19:14:55
        
        I'll get the vaseline you bring the marbles (n/m) (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:16:48
        
        feel free to use my poker example (NCFC) - Charles21, Apr 17, 19:09:27
        
        There may be no point (NCFC) - Sugbad The Bad, Apr 17, 19:11:48
        
        But Suggs on a serious note, I do like the fact we are playing on Sunday after everyone (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:15:47
        
        I know..... (NCFC) - Sugbad The Bad, Apr 17, 19:17:29
        
        I think the key here is it could be an advantage or disadvantage (NCFC) - Charles21, Apr 17, 19:16:52
        
        So we are all agreed it could be an advantage but then again it could be a disadvantage (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Apr 17, 19:18:43
        
        lol (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Apr 17, 19:40:37
