Hey all! I’m re-running a poll we had three years ago because it led to some interesting answers. I’m curious to see whether anything has changed with our current player base!
There are four basic types of poker players. While many players adapt their style based on how others are playing at the table, there’s likely one that you tend to default to – something that feels most comfortable. Which are you?
loose-passive
loose-aggressive
tight-passive

I’ll be drawing at least ten winners on March 25th. The more participants we have, the more chips we’ll give out!
Doesn’t matter what the hole cards are, even a high pair, I’ll place a careful bet until I’ve seen what the flop brings, a pair of kings only needs 1 ace on the table to be beat those kings by a second ace on the flop,turn or the river, … been there seen the movie and read the book
The table usually decides my style of play, countering what my opponents are doing. Although you’re just setting yourself up too much passive play, it can be effective against obviously aggressive players.
I hate labels. Hold’em I play one style, Omaha another, stud a third, and Royal I just wing it. Plus you have to adjust your style depending on the stage of the tournament, number of players at your table, and stack sizes. Nothing is more fun than showing tight passive for a while and then going hyper aggressive for a bit and watch people heads spin
It really depends on how the session is going. I’d say tight passive overall but if I’m hitting on all my draws I’ll definitely play more loose passive.
Though I have been playing poker for a little while, I still play in a cautious manner. I prefer not to give clues to my hand strength hoping for a bigger payout. With that I must also accept facing unkind turns & rivers and the occasional bad beat.
Tight passive . i don’t call every preflop and i’m not afraid to fold a big pair depending on what the board is showing but i also go with my GUT sometimes lol
I am a solid aggressive player… BUT… i keep an image by check folding flops on middle positions and cut off…by opening my middle position or cut off with a raise and limping in if others have limped in in these positions, this way players cant put me on a hand. I do this with trash hands 20 percent of the time. But quite frankly, i always play a cut off position and one middle position hands one time around when everyone has had a chance to be on the button…
May ur pots be big and ur hands be monsters!
While I am constantly adjusting my game depending on the table and my stack, the overwhelming factor re playing aggressive or passive is how much my wife has nagged me prior to playing
I chose tight aggressive because I do no play all hands, but if I get hand I alllin often epecially if blinds high thus often buying or winning big pots.
