What's your style?

What style of play do you usually use? Which style do you feel has the most success at the casinos and at the pro lvl?

I'm pretty much just starting out and I play mostly tight aggressive. I'll raise preflop if i have something worth playing.

Seems like a very generic, hard-to-answer question. You just gotta find a style that works for you and develop it. Enhance whatever style feels right and in-line with your playing. Also, it changes somewhat with your chip-stack, number of players, and many other variables. To answer your question, I personally use TAG, but as for the second question, it depends. It depends, it depends, it depends.

You need to be able to adapt your style to fit different situations. You often hear players talk of changing gears, that's what they mean.

Usually, I'm a TAG, but I'll loosen up if factors dictate it.

i guess beginners like me are better off playing TAG...and then as we develop the other factors like reading betting styles, general instinct or intuition...we can be more flexible and play as the situation demands

In live cash games, I play tight-aggressive.

Online tournaments, I play a more loose-aggressive style.
