Tight play - To play tight means to play much fewer starting hands, to fold when the hands are not strong and to enter the game only with strong combinations. The tight play is the best strategy for most of the situations, especially when playing with loose aggressive players i.e. maniacs. At the same time, if most of the other players play tight, it will be better for you to be more flexible than to wait passively for stronger hand. In many situations, when starting with mediocre hands, it is better to fold when a tight player raises. With these type of players you better call only when your hands are strong enough. If you have very strong hand, do not be afraid to raise tighter players – in most of the cases they will not fold.
