Having trouble beating a home game

Oh, BTW. I am not sure if you play limit or no-limit. My suggestions are for limit hold'em.

We play no-limit. 12 minute blinds (25/50, 50/100, 75/150, etc until the 10th level 2500/5000 which doubles thereafter) Starting with 5000 chips. I do wish we played limit since it would be an easy game to beat. We usually have 5 or 6 people per table depending on how many show up (between 3 and 12) I do much better when there are more in the game because I have some great tells on a few of the less frequent players.

I know position, position, position is important, but what is the best way to exploit that position? Should I be raising garbage from the button occasionally to mix it up?
