A player who plays a lot of starting hands. Generally divisible into three subcategories: loose-
passive (also known as a "
fish"), meaning a player who plays a lot of starting hands but does not bet them aggressively, loose-aggressive, meaning a player who plays a lot of starting hands and does bet them aggressively, and
maniac, meaning a player who plays a lot of starting hands and bets them at an irrational
level of
aggression, such as 3-betting the
flop with 2 undercards and no
draw.
Example: With a loose player sitting to my right, I widened my raising range to try to isolate him.
