What is a nit?

I have some questions

What exactly is a nit, or what does "playing like a nit" describe?

Also what exactly is weak-tight and be specific.

Are these the same thing?

weak-tight != nit

nits are usually grumpy bastards that make the game miserable and ask to see all hands at showdown and ask for a setup every five seconds and berate players and make games [censored]...

weak tight people are usually tight preflop and fit/fold postflop, very predictable but can turn a small profit in soft games...

the players who crush the donks but would get raped vs good players

people who dont give action without big hands are nits

below 15/9 is nitty in 6max imo

Nit... pick. Get it?

The guy who yells at the dealer because the burn cards are not one underneath another, and are sitting one on top of eachother. "That's now how you're supposed to burn!"
