Being "under the gun" in a game of poker is disadvantageous because the player in this position has to act first in the betting round, immediately following the big blind. Since the player has no information about the other players' hands or decisions, they have to make a decision based solely on their own cards, making it difficult to know whether their hand is strong or weak relative to the other players' hands. Additionally, the player in the UTG position has a wider range of starting hands as a result of having to act first, so they are more likely to have a weaker hand than someone who acts later in the betting round. This makes it harder for players in this position to win the pot and requires them to be more cautious in their betting decisions.
