PoppinFresh 0 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Tight and loose have only to do with pre-flop hand selection.Postflop there is no distinction between the two. Unless I have the definition wrong? I have been very confused by the way people have been using these terms.you do.if we are talking of postflop play passive would mean call instead of raise asa general rule. tight means more likely to fold, loose means less likely to call. therefore a tight passive player is more likley to fold than a loose passive player, and when he does call it is indeed more likely to be a call than a raise than an aggressive player.Are you sure? Then what would we call a player who was tight pre-flop and loose postflop? When you hear of players classified you'll hear something like LAP(loose aggressive/passive), but I've never heard of classifications like LTAP or LLAP. Link to post Share on other sites

Its like calling some a violent pacifist. Link to post Share on other sites

Its like calling some a violent pacifist.LAP means loose, aggressive pre-flop, passive postflop. I'm almost positive tight and loose have only to do with pre-flop hand selection.Can someone else settle this? Link to post Share on other sites
Bubba83 0 Posted February 8, 2006 Author Share Posted February 8, 2006 Argh, I don't mind a long drawn out conversation between you two, but stop using if you're the very next quote, we know what you're responding to so it really just wastes blankspace! Anyway, as I said before, I thought he was good post-flop, and that his range to limp UTG was better than A 8 suited. I think it's probably close between limping and raising in this situation against this type of player. Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 J-j-jeetorious is correct in the way we/pokertraker categorizes playersABC where...A: preflop VPIPB: Aggression, prflop raisingC: Post FLop Aggression and to an extent looseness, Betting/Rasing/Folding vs Callnig, checking is nuetral.A player that PT calls TAA, might actually fold a lot post flop when he misses, or Raise all the time, either one will give him a higher Post Flop aggression value.Someone who calls a lot will have a lower Post Flop Aggression factor..and that person is both loose and passive..so its makes good sense.
