Default Re: Quote a Poker authority...

As to Item 1 Is he talking about Stud or No-limit hold'em?

Mason discusses this in one of his Poker Essays books.

In 7 card stud, the higher the ante in relation to the bring in and bets on later streets the looser a player should play. In Poker Essays 3 Mason explains how higher limit 7 card stud has the proper balance of luck and skill. Others can elaborate why it is correct to play looser. You can figure it out for yourself.

In general, what does it mean when table is tight, you should play "loose"? By stealing more, or by playing more marginal hands?

Not playing marginal hands, but by stealing more.
