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

There are a number of points to make regarding this statement.

[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] It is extremely rare to find a table where the players are tighter than optimal. When people say a table is tight, they often mean relative to average, but the table may still be loose in absolute terms.

[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Whether your opponents are tighter than optimal or looser than optimal, you should play slightly looser than optimal, but for different reasons.

When your opponents are looser than optimal, they are essentially paying extra blinds. By taking weak cards to battle, they are making some of your your marginal hands profitable, since you can get a share of the extra blind.

When your opponents are tighter than normal, they move you closer to the button, giving you an extra share of the blinds. They also tend to let you keep more of your blinds. However, after a tight player has limped in front of you, you may have to fold hands which are worth playing after a loose player has limped in.
