Default Re: LAGs in no limit

If they are good LAGs, which are rare at the smaller tables (NL$50--$25) youŽd better stay away from them! The only way to go is to trap them with a monster, but if they are good they will know when to fold a hand against a TAG.

They used to make me (IŽm TAG-UA) play their game and cleaned me out. Sometimes you can give them their own medicine and push on the flop with TPTK. Notice I say sometimes. Some very good players I know say MOST of the time TPTK is enough to go against the LAG. I just think that adds too much variance and if you can handle it (mentally) it s ok, and probably EV+. I think it s better to let them have the small pots and hit them hard with your monsters. It s also very frustrating when they are good enough to fold their good hands against you when they are beat.

I just try to focus on the overall results and not in how I m doing against a particular player on the table. In most sites there are many LP, WT, TP and CS,SM to make money from them...it s not necessary to outplay everyone. Remember that LAG is the hardest style to play and definetely the hardest style to play against.

Be creative with the good hands and SOMETIMES, put pressure back with nothing more than TPTK. Stay away from their craziness.... [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
