When you´re playing Poker you should realize that certain players play differently than others. Some people will find that the best way for them to play is to be very aggressive with their bets and raises while others discover that the most successful strategy for them seems to be playing tight and reigning in their bets.

But no matter how one plays at the table, they will have to vary their strategies at some point and leave their comfort levels if they are to be a great player in the long run.

Tight

This playing style is almost the exact opposite of aggressive play. Tight players play far fewer starting hands, and are patient enough to wait for the right hands, the right position, and the right situation to make their move While the social side may still be important to them, the main goal here is to play winning poker while taking the bare minimum of risks.
