For a bit more to think about, the author continues:-

"Note that if you are on the button and the raiser is on your immediate  right, your position is actually shaky. If the raiser bets the flop, the  bet puts you in the middle. If someone checks a strong hand expecting  the raiser to bet, they bag you as well. Sometimes the raiser checks the  flop but this is not as helpful with the raiser on your right, as anyone could have checked a busjwacker expecting the raiser to bet.
    "Note the huge difference from when the raiser has early position and is first to act and checks and the others also check. In a threeway or fourway pot, the situation is so favourable for a steal it is tempting to fire with any holding.
    "The raiser nearly always has missed the flop and decided not to bluff. The others knowing this still do not care to bet, so they are unlikely to have even a modest hand. You will only get called or raised if someone is slowplaying a monster or there is a calling station in the game."

Facinating stuff to me but as Pascal LeFiscal said it ain't gonna happen much.
