Position Sprint
Only the dealer button is marked. Click the seat the question asks for — cutoff, blinds, first to act — before the clock runs out. Make position instinct.
How to play
Find the button. Only the dealer (D) seat is marked; everything else is relative to it.
Read the question. It names a position or an action order — cutoff, big blind, first preflop…
Click the seat. Beat the clock. Positions run clockwise from the button.
The 6-max position wheel
Clockwise from the dealer button the seats are: Button (BTN), Small Blind (SB), Big Blind (BB), Under the Gun (UTG), Middle Position (MP), Cutoff (CO). Preflop, action starts at UTG and ends with the big blind; after the flop it starts at the small blind and ends with the button — which is exactly why the button is the best seat at the table.
| Seat | Where | Acts… |
|---|---|---|
| UTG | Left of the big blind | First preflop |
| MP | Next along | Early–middle |
| CO | Right of the button | Late |
| BTN | The dealer | Last postflop |
| SB | Left of the button | First postflop |
| BB | Left of the SB | Last preflop |
Once the wheel is automatic, you'll know your position the instant you sit down in a hand. Go deeper in the positions guide and put position to work preflop with the Range Trainer.
Frequently asked questions
What is Position Sprint?
A timed drill on table position. You see a 6-max table with only the dealer button marked, and each round you must instantly click the seat the question asks for — the cutoff, the small blind, who acts first preflop, and so on. It turns 'where am I relative to the button' into a reflex.
Why drill position so hard?
Position is the single biggest structural edge in poker: acting last lets you play more hands profitably and control the pot. But at the table you have to read your position instantly, every hand, from the button's location alone. Hesitation or mistakes here cascade into bad preflop and postflop decisions.
How are the positions worked out?
From the button, clockwise: the button is on the dealer, then small blind, big blind, under the gun, middle position, and cutoff. Preflop action runs UTG first to big blind last; postflop it runs small blind first to button last. Every answer follows those rules exactly.
What's a good score?
Aim to click the right seat in under two seconds with near-perfect accuracy. If the blinds-and-button order isn't automatic yet, read the positions guide first, then sprint.
