I found an interesting article on the pro’s of playing tight
In my last article we compared two different loose tables to see what kind of player would dominate and what hands would win. Unquestionably the tighter players outperform the looser players. Before you continue reading, jot down how many hands per hundred dealt, you play. If that number is too high for you to work with, count the number of hands you play in a single round with ten seated players at the table. If all else fails just jot down how many hands you play per hour. If the dealer is good you may get 20 to 25 hands per hour. The number for Hold-Em is around 30 and maybe as high as 35/40 per hour with a shuffle machine. Honesty counts. Go write it down. Ok let’s continue. Do not take into account tournament play.

Most new players do not understand that it is not enough to know your opponents and the style they play (passive, tight…). A good player should know what his opponents think about him and know how to convey a certain table image. There are several principle methods to deceive your opponents and lead them to believe what you want them to.

Texas hold em is in right now, of course , if you dont know the rules, you cant play !
Rules
Texas Hold’em is arguably the most popular form of poker. It is widely considered to have the most strategy of all poker games, yet the rules are quite simple. Here is how a hand of Texas Holdem is played:
1. Hole Cards. Each player is dealt two cards face down.
2. The Flop. Three cards are dealt face up on the table.
3. The Turn. A fourth card is dealt to the table.
4. The River. Finally, a fifth card is dealt to the table.
The five cards on the table are community cards. Your hand is formed by taking the best poker hand you can by using any five out of the seven cards (5 community + 2 hole cards). But remember, all the players have access to the community cards. When played for money, there is a round of betting after a round of cards is dealt (so four rounds of betting in total).
