I had a session today where I had a very LAG image. I was playing 3/6 6max on Poker Stars. My table went from a full table to heads up and filled again. My heads up opponent and I had tangled in alot of the hands when the table was full. It got to the point where I had a solid read on the opponent. I was doing things such as check-raising two streets in a row, waiting till the turn to raise with nothing, and other fancy-play-syndrome stuff that is often ill advised. As players joined the table they watched me play the opponent.

When the table had filled I had not completely shifted gears from LAGGGy heads up tactics to solid play quite yet. I raised J8s for in EP and had a called. Eventually I won the pot with jack high(and showed). The very next hand I picked up QQ played a capped pot 3 ways till the river(KKK,2,8 board). At this point I started talking about "well thats the luck of the draw". From there on If I picked up a flush or when I played pocket 3s with 3 players on a 624(two suited board) and took it down I made references to luck, lucky hands, and gave illogical reasons to stay in hands such as "its my lucky hand!"

if you want to take the time to say "its my lucky hand!", that can only help, but performing -EV plays at 3/6 is just retarded.

Anyone who can't see right through this doesn't need to be tricked in the first place.
