Here's one to take note of... and avoid yourself:

The autoaction buttons.

When a player in late position instantly folds a lot when there's no one raising the blinds a lot is playing a tight game.

Think about it: This player is not analyzing the action before them. 8-10 becomes moderately playable at the CO position if no one's raised in a multiway pot, but your opponent has already decided he's not playing these cards. He's only looking for good hands, and not willing to gamble with you, particularly while the blinds are at a nice comfortable level.

The inverse of this is: If he raises you, or makes a late position play, you can't put him on a positional raise. He's shown a willingness to wait for cards, so he's got SOMETHING that interests him. You have to re-evaluate the strength of your hand accordingly.

Just something to think about.
