So what's so great about position?

[ QUOTE ]
OK I'm not going to write a long post about position, simply beacause it is so fundamental. You can't do well at poker without understanding position. There are many many situations in which position is basically everything.

Well I earn $2-3000 per month playing poker, so I think I am doing well. But I don't have a good grasp of how best to utilize position. Think of it as a pitcher throwing 100 mph but not really knowing how to pitch (I'm not trying to brag just letting you know I play well but dont have a good grasp of position).

Your idea about playing HU is a good one. I can see how that would help. There are several very well thought out comments in this thread which have helped. Any other thoughts are of course much appreciated.
