> Web Liar's Poker Advice

While each poker player has their own unique playing and decision making style, there are basically only four main categories of 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:
Depending on the number of hands the player plays with the players can be either tight or loose. Tight players play few hands and loose players play with a lot of 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
In an online poker environment this is the weakest category. The main feature of such a player is that he raises every time after the flop. In a real casino such a strategy will allow to win only small pots, but in online casinos they will be only a flop. 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. The only advice here is not to stick to one and the same table. It is better to change tables every 50 hands.
Loose-Passive
They are no more stronger than the first group. The players of this group will gain success if there are a lot of wild players at the table and everything is determined only by luck. These players always call other players’ bets disregarding their strength. Such players can stay in the game longer than anybody else, but they will never be able to beat the house edge.
Tight-Passive
With the help of bad players at the table players of this type win. The biggest weakness of a Tight-Passive player is that they are so easy to figure out. Such players never bluff. 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.
