If you're playing live at a casino or online without a HUD, then what are some basic tips to identify whether a villain is a nit, tag, lag, or fish?
I'm having some trouble categorizing players I'm playing against because I rarely get to see the cards unless there's a showdown. This ends up meaning that I currently play in a way as though I'm up against a bunch of unknown players. But I know this strategy is suboptimal if I had confidence in identifying the player types and could exploit their tendencies better.
Do you just keep track of who is entering the pot often to categorize a lag? If a player folds a lot to barrels postflop, does that mean they are a nit?
How long do you have to play with someone before you can categorize them into one of the types?
Sorry if this is a very basic question, but this concept is giving me a lot of trouble.
Thanks for your help!
