Re: The definition of LAG
I'm not asking what numbers you should have to be a good player...I'm asking what DEFINES a LAG, since everyone is so keen on labeling themselves as one. Do you have to see tons of flops. Few flops with lot of raises?
One thing that sometimes confuses me is that someone who calls themself a LAG will post a hand where they are betting, raising, check-raising with weak hands and/or slim draws. If you really have been playing LAGish, isn't it VERY hard to bluff? Aren't people going to call you down with very marginal hands? Or are we hearing about "set up" hands where someone tries to announce themselves as a fish?
I'm glad there are real men out there like ocho to put us internet players in our place. It's cute that he thinks this post is just some roundabout way of stroking my own ego. But he probably could beat me live (I'm sure I have tells). And also, I probably suck.
No numbers here, is this striaghtforward enough for you?
