Though, although and even though are actually the same in terms of grammar usage because they are all conjunctions however the position may vary because (al)though common position is as follows: (al)though+ clause + clause, clause + although + clause. While even though is only this : even though + clause + clause. This is just my idea and my understanding about the usage of the conjunctions mentioned.

He's very smart. He's not a genius, though. You can say as though , but not as although , to mean as if in discussing similarities. He acted as though he were dreaming. You can say even though , but not even although , to mean despite the fact that . Even though he was nervous, he gave the speech without a mistake. In most other situations, although and though are equivalent.

Many prefer although at the beginning of a sentence: Although I asked him, he didn't come. But both are fine here: He didn't come though/although I asked him. I wouldn't say that though is wrong even in the first sentence but although is probably more common.
