this can by no means be a good measure of your play as a LAG player.

"it depends" on your current image, how tight/aggro button is.

my standard play is to fold sometimes and raise sometimes with J9 4 handed on c/o.

Er, no, everyone was being sarcastic.

I will open here nearly always w/ J9. But really, who cares? What you do postflop is of much more importance.

oh no you raised preflop

Re: Am i a terrible LAG?
 

how can you not raise PF utg 4 handed w/ J9?

you're crazy to muck, crazy to limp here.

Re: Am i a terrible LAG?
 

Do you change the size of your bets with bad hands/good hands? You seem like you always bet the pot (not sure preflop), and raising $30 preflop might be a tell?

The answer also depends on the stats of the others in the table
