\"Legitimate hands\" from The Theory of Poker
What does Sklansky mean by “legitimate hands” in chapter 16, Loose and Tight Play, on the second paragraph of page 152? He states, "In a tight game, you bluff and semi-bluff more, but you tighten up on your legitimate hands."
Is he referring to strong starting hands or marginal hands? |

He means you may raise the turn with a flush draw + one overcard, but simply call with top pair/middle weakish kicker.

he means specifically hands like AJ and AQ are not as valuable to raise with in a tight game since you will usually be called by better hands. In a very loose game something like AJ could be the best hand going into a raised pot (vs KJ and KQ if you pick a good enough game) so therefore you can loosen up your "legitimate hands" in a loose game
