In heads up poker, adapting to your opponent’s style and method is one of the most integral parts of the game. If you aren’t able to mix up your style and play in a way that exploits his or her weaknesses and strengths, you essentially will find yourself getting beat up while waiting for big hands that probably won’t get paid.

Weak tight players are some of the easiest to face in heads up online poker, as their need to wait for monsters and quality starting hands before they are willing to commit chips will find them quickly grasping at straws as you whittle them down and then get out of the way when they fight back (unless you make a big hand then too).

Against weak tight online poker players, it is often good to be raising as much as possible. Any suited connectors, small pairs, cards that add up to twenty or more, suited aces, mid aces, suited kings, and pretty much any other hand that you can push is worth of a raise (and against really weak players, literally any hand is worth a raise).

Pushing and pushing will frustrate these players, and often back them into a corner where they have to take a stand. Meanwhile you keep scooping pot after pot, until the deathblow finally arrives.
