One thing that I've started to incorporate into my Holdem game lately is something I see many of the big pros do on High Stakes Poker -- I've started limping in, and even calling middling raises, with position with some of my suited connectors and even some suited one- and two-gappers, and some non-suited connectors as well. This is something I almost never used to do, at least as far as calling a raise with this type of hand, but lately I've started doing this if I can take a flop relatively cheap and I might be able to win a pile of chips.Positions that take action first are disadvantaged.

With the right to fold, call (check) and raise after SB in the preflop and need to take action next to the SB after the flop.

The position on the left side of BB. Need to take action first in the preflop. Since the position is disadvantageous except for SB and BB after the flop, it is said to be under the gun in the sense that it is a dangerous position as the muzzle is directed.

A position requires action early. It varies depending on the number of players. In the case of a 10-person table, UTG and the two people on the left are generally called early positions. In the case of 6 players, only UTG will be in early position.
The position actions are taken in the middle in each round. In a 10-player game, it is common to call the 3 players performing the 4th to 6th actions in the preflop as the middle position. While 6-players, it will be 2 players on the left side of UTG.
