What do the different table positions mean in Texas Hold'em?

Table position affects the order of action and can influence strategy. Common positions include the Dealer (Button), Small Blind (SB), Big Blind (BB), and Under the Gun (UTG). In general, players who act later in the betting round have more information than players who act earlier. After each hand, the Dealer position moves clockwise.

In Squid Hunt, players may receive more than one Squid Marker during the game. When all Markers are distributed, or only one player is left without a Marker, the game concludes, and players without a Marker pay penalties to those who have at least one. Please refer to the in-game rules for the exact details of each sub-mode.
