There exist at east 4 types of poker players. All these types of players have their own techniques which can be very useful under certain circumstances.
Each style is based on two attributes:
If the player is tight (plays very few hands) or loose (plays a lot of hands):
Or the player can be either aggressive or passive. An aggressive player has the following features: he bluffs and raises while a passive player calls the bets of other players.
Loose-Aggressive
Loose-aggressive player is the weakest player especially in online poker game. The main feature of such a player is that he raises every time after the flop. Their strategy often works against poor players and will win a lot of small pots, but online, these players will go broke quickly. Loose-Aggressive players attract sharks. Sharks let such a player has his small pots, but then they are ready to break this player and win all his money. The only way this strategy works is for the player to wander from one table to another approximately every 50 hands.
Loose-Passive
This is another weak category. Their strategy is to call the bets of other players no matter how strong their hands are. Such players can stay in the game longer than anybody else, but they will never be able to beat the house edge.
Tight-Passive
These players can win money simply because there are so many bad players in the online poker rooms. The biggest weakness of a Tight-Passive player is that they are so easy to figure out. Such players never bluff. This player is more likely to call the bets of other players or to make small bets. If not, they will fold.
Tight-Aggressive
This style can be very successful for online play. These players will only see a flop with a decent hand and will then take a shot at the pot after the flop with a bet. Casino Stud Poker Hand.
