How to play 76s by position

6-max cash game, around 100 big blinds deep.

Early position (UTG)

Fold. Out of position against several players, seven-six struggles to realise its equity.

Middle position (hijack)

Fold in most games, or open-raise at a loose, passive table.

Late position (cutoff, button)

Open-raise from the cutoff and button. Position lets you play draws and win pots when others miss.

Blinds

Raise when folded to; call against late opens with deep stacks.

Facing a raise

Call in position with deep stacks. Fold to 3-bets.
