We all have different style of playing poker and in poker patience is the key.However,Their are numerous poker tactics used by poker player like us.
(Example)
#Whenever I have best hand I generally show opponent I have nothing by checking and if he/she bet than the ball is in my court (Basically ,he/she get trapped).

SO what type of tactics you use in online poker(tournament/Cash game)?

This tactic you’re talking about is called slow playing. It’s just a perfect exemple how of the tactics to be used depend on the moment and your opponent.

Sometimes you have a very aggressive player against you, and this may work. But if you receive an AA and plays this way against a very tight player, you will not be able to extract a lot of value, the game will be extended to the river and the vilain could fold after all, or worse, you see your great starting hand being beat by a weak one by the board cards.

More, if you begin to repeat continually this tactic, the other players no longer will pay your bets, and you will not get a real value with your big hands.

It is a matter of analysis on what is happening on the table. Sometimes it can be good to hide the game, sometimes it's better to be aggressive. The important thing is to confuse your opponent as much as possible, so that the hand control is with you.

I know each situation is different but that was just an example.The thread is about your tactics "not about to analysis advantage or disadvantage of others tactics".:deal:

you play poker using a strategy
and play each hand using tactics
that's a simple answer to your general question.
every hand must be played taking into account many factors (opp stats, your stats, dynamic, stack sizes and many more)

One of my tactics is when in late position and i've raised 3-4 times the bb with KTs+ and there's one caller, if the flop brings low cards i overbet the pot to represent a big pair the majority of time vilain fold. works perfectly especially in mtts.

One strategy I use is to make small bets on flop and turn and then really big overbet on river (if I just get called on flop and turn and no scary cards come out on the river). I mix it up here, with mostly going with very good hands as opponent thinks you are trying to steal the pot, and will call in a majority of cases with second pair.
