Intentionally putting tight aggressives to your left is--frankly--stupid.

Having a tight aggressive player to your left is probably better than having a random player to your left at a full table, all else being equal.

The tight aggressive will not be enterring too many pots - he's *tight* after all - which means that you can do things like buy the Button with some impunity. It's true that a talented player will take better advantage of his position than an untalented player, but for the most part, you will stay out of one another's way - if you're playing 1/6 of your hands and he's playing 1/6 of his hands then you'll be involved in a hand together only 1/36 of the time. If the table gets down to 6-handed or so, then the TAG is going to loosen up a bit and that can be problematic, but any sort of conspicuously *tight* opponent, whether loose or aggressive, is a friend to your left at a full game.

It's the *loose* aggressive players that it's essential to have to your right.
