Re: being a \"nit\"/\"tag\"
People throw around the term nit so loosely. To me a nit is someone who is scared of putting their money on the line without what they consider a lock. You will never see them making a thin calldown unless its tilt, and they will be scared of overcards and flushes arriving even if basic hand reading makes those hands very unlikely. Nits will never straddle, never flip for the hell of it, will be the guy in the live game who wastes 15 minutes arguing to get his sb back when he thinks he was forced to post it twice.
It has little to do with how often a player jams with marginal type overpairs, draws etc. Thats more of a measure of passivity/aggression.
And little to do with how big a laydown a player is willing to make if they believe there is a good reason to.
