Tight Poker Strategy
What is tight poker strategy?, well there are many ways to play your whole cards but your strategy game should be adjusted at various times during your play that is to say loose ,tight and aggressive play, Here we look at playing tight first of all and what other options are possible and yet still able to produce strong tight winning poker hands.
Playing Tight
many players would see a tight player at the table playing few hands but with quality cards such as AK,AQ,AJ,AA,KK,QQ,JJ or pocket pairs but is this not only type of tight strategy that can be implemented in this way, after all if you have mucked your cards in previous hands then your opponent or opponents don't know what whole cards you are playing all they do know is you are playing tight and generally have it in there minds that you have had high cards in your hand and in certain situations it can pay to play with cards other than those mentioned after all you are not going to get dealt the best pre flop hands very often, they are few and far between and in online poker they get beat a lot of the time any way.
So what other hands should you be looking to play? well look for hand like suited connectors and hands like flush draws but with an ace in your whole cards these types of hands can increase your chip stack especially if you hit a straight or flush and your opponents believe you are holding high cards and the flop is low and even more so if they have hit top pair with a good kicker or even trips, but keep an eye out for the board pairing as a full house then becomes a possibility and checking to the river would then be advised.
