A tight player plays only the strongest starting hole cards. They raise the pot before the flop with a limited range of premium hands such as pocket Aces, Kings, or pairs 10 or better. They call pre-flop bets cautiously with only a select few hands. They play the post flop streets even tighter, betting or raising mainly with the nuts or close to it. They tend to fold quickly when the flop misses their guarded hole cards, even when they have made middle or top pair. A tight player shows very little enthusiasm or emotion at the table, betting deliberately and purposefully. Their measured play and reluctance to call bets or see many flops reveals little about the strength of their hole cards or what they hit on the community cards.
