What Type Of Poker Player Are You?

 

1.TIGHT-AGGRESSIVE: This is the generally the best type of strategy. This poker player does not play too many hands but plays hands aggressively when in the pot.

2. TIGHT: This poker player does not waste money on trash hands. A tight player also tends to maximize his or her wins when holding a powerful hand. A disadvantage of this style of play is that this type of player is sometimes too predictable. A tight player also needs to sometimes loosen up and play more hands if the right situation arises.

3. LOOSE-AGGRESSIVE: This poker player plays a lot of hands and plays them aggressively. This player will bet and raise all the time. The advantage of this style of play is that it is unpredictable and is able to steal a lot of pots. Nevertheless, this player will often be found throwing away lots of money on pointless bluffs and bets with inferior hands. This style of player works okay against tight-passives, provided the tight passives don’t wise up and start calling the maniac down! This style works best in no limit texas hold’em.

4. TIGHT-PASSIVE: This type of poker player does not play many hands. When a tight-passive player enters a pot, he or she is not aggressive and mainly just calls or folds. The advantage of this style of play is this player does not tend to lose much money on any given hand. However, this type of player ends up being bluffed out of many pots. A tight-passive also does not win as much money as he or she could when holding a winning hand.

5. LOOSE-PASSIVE: This type of player plays a lot of hands but does not tend to play them very aggressively. The favorite word in the English language for this player is “call.” The only advantage of this style of play is that it is diffi cult to bluff this sort of player out of a pot. A maniac will quite often end up losing a lot of their money to a calling station. However, this player almost always ends up a losing player. This is because calling stations simply throw away too much money on losing hands.
