double gutshot against LAG

[gopnik]

UTG+1 is a LAG with pretty low preflop raising standards. He plays more than half of his hands and loves to bluff. The preflop call might be a little thin, but besides that, anybody plays this differently?

PF is fine, river is good.
Normally a flop bet isn't bad to disguise your hand, but check/call vs. a LAG - he's going to raise too often and chase out MP1.
I guess the turn bet is OK since you may very well have the best hand.
