How many hands are these stats over? If it's reliable, then nh.

Re: Ultra passive against a LAG...
 

Preflop I'd like another limper or a cold caller before I call with this in the BB.
I love making good plays against Lags as much as the next guy probably a bit of a leak for me but even I wouldn't just call this down with this low a pair. Pick a better spot IMHO.

Re: Ultra passive against a LAG...
 

Not a huge sample, maybe 50-60 hands.

Re: Ultra passive against a LAG...
 

I would have folded preflop.
And also folded with only a pair of 2s.

This guys stats post flop don't seem that insane to suggest that a pair of twos is going to be worth the call down. He sure likes his showdowns, but doesn't seem to be bet bet betting his way to them with nothing.

Re: Ultra passive against a LAG...
 

I'm not sure if I would call preflop, but I don't utterly hate it (because villain probably raises lots of hands that don't contain an ace).

I would have check-raised the flop.

As you played it, I would have bet the river to keep him from checking behind with overcards.

I considered both of these. As far as c/r the flop, I figured with his high WTSD% that I wasn't going to get him to fold over cards before the river anyway.

On the river I almost bet out, but I felt he would fold overcards to bet, but may fire again with them when checked to.

An agg factor of 2 combined with a VPIP of 55 and a WtSD of 70% is extremely high. This guy is pretty nutty. I agree now that there should have been a c/r on the flop. I'm torn on the river. I don't think this guy is checking behind here very often based on his stats, but he might. I think a more important question his how often he'll raise our river donk with a worse hand. I'd rather not put in two bets on the river with this hand.

Re: Ultra passive against a LAG...
 

The flop c/r isn't to fold him, it's to fold the other guy.
