Position is merely one of the things which can affect the value of a hand.

[/ QUOTE ] But would you agree that it is THE most important thing which can affect the value of a hand?

No. All else being equal, I would usually rather have AAQJ out of position than AKQJ in position. I would usually rather have 6789ds out of position than 6789r in position. I would usually rather have 89TJs out of position than 89T2s in position. I would usually rather have KKTT out of position than KK72 in position. And I base this on more than just intuition.
