Weak Tight and Rock
Hello,
What’s the difference between a weak tight player and a rock? Well to me they look similar. Your thoughts?
Thanks a ton!
Regards,
Tom
Tom,
Weak tight players will sometimes make folds when certain scare cards hit the board, even if they have a hand. For instance, a weak tight player will fold a set to a potential straight or flush on board. A rock will still call this.
Rocks usually will raise their big hands and their hands on the flop if they are in the lead. Sometimes weak-tight players will play a little more passively. Weak-tight players may also check their big pocket pair preflop and then just check call bets, where rocks will at least make a raise.
