Player type profiles

[Finch310]

Can anybody out there offer some good definitions for the various player types such as "loose passive/aggressive" etc? Who do you look out for? Who do you attack?

[Matador225]

Loose-A person that sees the flop with a wide variety of hands.
Tight-The exact opposite.
Passive-A player that tends to mostly check and call.
Aggressive-Someone who tends to bet and raise a lot.

The most profitable players are loose aggressive (LAG) and to a lesser extent loose passive. These are the people you should be looking for.

Psychology of Poker would be a good book for you.

You attack the kind of players you play best against. Its really a personal preference.
