Hello! I'm newer to poker so sorry if this is already a post, but I couldn't find it. I'm familiar with the poker probability matrix, but was wondering if anyone had an updated matrix handy that factors in if you are small or big blind? I just do casual home games, but was hoping it could help me with making decisions when I already have money in the pot. Thank you!

Not totally sure I understand your specific question, but here is the chart for when you “should” raise first in from the small blind. There are others regarding when to call or 3-bet when facing a raise.

With these kinds of charts they are just suggestions and vary based on specifics of your game. When in position vs weak opponents many more hands are profitable than out of position vs strong opponents. Also, the hands on the edge of the range are only very slightly winning raises or losing folds. So it is not critical to know the exact hands recommended for any position.
If you can get a feel for the relative strength of starting hands, and an idea of what factors would lead you to slide up and down this scale, you will be moving in the right direction.
Good luck!
