UTG (UNDER THE GUN)
UTG, or Under the Gun, is the player seated directly to the left of the big blind π and is the first to act preflop. Itβs one of the worst positions at the table, as you have eight π other players left to act behind you. This means you should play conservatively, as the chances are high that someone π acting after you has a strong hand.
UTG +1
This is the position directly to the left of the UTG player and π is the second to act preflop. This position plays similarly to UTG, as these are the two earliest positions you π can get at the poker table. You can play a couple more hands from UTG+1, but you still need to π play tight.
