Loose - A style of play where a player plays a lot of hands.
Generally a loose player has more "gamble" in their game than a typical player. They not only play more hands,
but have a tendency to hold onto them longer when it should be obvious their hand is behind.
Loose players have a reputation for playing inferior cards because they get involved with more hands than the law of
averages states will be “strong”. However, this makes it more difficult to determine when they are actually holding the
nuts and they therefore get “more action”
and are paid off enough times to help counter balance their losses.
