There exist at east 4 types of poker players. Belonging to this or that type players have both strong and weak points and all of them have advantages over others in some particular situations. Each style is based on two attributes: Whether the player is loose and play a lot of hands or tight and play very few hands. Whether the player is aggressive or passive. An aggressive player raises and bluffs a lot. A passive player prefers to call the bets of other players. Loose-Aggressive Loose-aggressive player is the weakest player especially in online poker game. These players are constantly raising before and 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. The sharks are fine with letting these players have 10 small pots; they are after the three large pots which will eventually break this player. To avoid such results it is better for such players to change tables from time to time. For example, every 50 hands. Loose-Passive They are no more stronger than the first group. These players can only make money in a game with a lot of wild players and generally have to depend on luck to have a successful poker session. Their strategy is to call the bets of other players no matter how strong their hands are. These players will lose very slowly, often being able to stay in against the other players, but unable to beat the house rake. Tight-Passive What allows players of this type to win is other players who play the game wrong. The biggest weakness of a Tight-Passive player is that they are so easy to figure out. You never have to worry about a bluff from them. If this type of player has a decent hand or a lot of outs, he or she will call your bet or make a small bet. They fold if they have a bad hand. 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.
