Definition of UTG+2

The player in the UTG+2 position is the player who speaks immediately after the player in the UTG+1 position. On a 6-max shorthanded table, the UTG+2 player will also be called the cutoff player. The player in UTG+2 position should be as careful as the player in UTG position and play a fairly tight range of hands. Some shorthanded tables will have 5 players. At such a table, the player in the UTG+2 position will be called the button.

UTG, UTG+1 and UTG+2

If you are playing at a shorthanded table, there will be a big difference between the UTG, UTG+1 and UTG+2 positions. The player in the UTG+2 position will be able to open many more hands than the player in the UTG position, but when you're in a casino on a 10-player table, there won't be much difference between the range of hands you can open from the UTG, UTG+1 and UTG+2 positions. You will have to play them in much the same way. From these positions, you will have to play fairly tight.
