Default Who do you want sitting to your right???

Hey guys,

Just want to finally discuss this. Is it better to have a loose player to your immediate right for the sake of using the reraise against him or a tight ass for knowing exactly what to do against him depending on what he does first.

You'd like the loose players to the left and the tight ones to the right. If he is a bad or good lag, you'd prefer to always have position on him. If he is loose passive, same thing. Tight players are easier to know what they will do. If he's only 3betting you preflop with AK, KK and AA, its easy to handle. If he's doing it with 88+, AQ+ it gets tougher to play OOP.

Are you sure you said that right? You want loose aggressive players to your right, so you can act AFTER them, and the squeezers to your left, because they arent reraising you.

umm, no kidding.

Losse aggro nutballs on your right so you can iso raise them with your better hands and play them in position

and tight, predictable players on your left so that when they raise/re-raise, you can get away from some hands easier.

Ideally, you would want everyone on your right, but since you can't have that, better to have crazy on your right and tight/sane on your left.

Are you talking about a loose raiser or just a typical loose player. If it's just a typical loose player, they usually have tight raising standards so I wouldn't be reraising him too often.

Loose aggressive players to your right. Tight aggressive players on your left.

Passive players (loose or tight) can be sitting anywhere, don't worry about the callers, worry about the betters/raisers.

Joe, how about tricky agressive players in NL? Somewhere inbetween tight and loose.
