Loose aggressive is a strategy that entails playing many hands, being loose, and better and raising often with large amounts, being aggressive. It is one of the common archetypes of a poker player.

Unlike a tight aggressive strategy, the loose aggressive strategy has a more limited range of situations in which it is profitable. It is most effective on a very tight table or against inexperienced or cowardly opponents. Players employing this strategy will undergo large swings in their stack.

Loose aggressive players may often be bullies or maniacs.
