Topic: Newbie questions about blinds and position.. Forum: Card Chat

Okay..

I play a lot of online poker but am fairly new to the game.. I hear lots of players and pros talk about how important playing the blinds and how important position is in relation to Texas Hold 'Em. I hear Chris Ferguson say, "I'm going to move all in when I get to the big blind" or Phil Ivey say, "I'm going to raise 4 times the big blind" when I'm watching them play on Full Tilt and PS. And they also talk about how important position is on their decision of whether to call, raise, or fold. Can someone maybe explain this a little more in depth for me? These may be some really DUMB questions, but I just cannot get a grasp on why these things are so important.
