Default Re: 3/6 turn steal - pretty basic question I guess.

[ QUOTE ]

Thinking aggressive players are perhaps the worst to try it against. They are tricky and thus most likely to have checked some sort of a hand on the flop, and they are the most likely to raise you without much of a hand on the turn because they put you on exactly what you really have.

I don't really understand. I would think that being raised by a LAG when you've shown weakness but are actually strong is a good thing. I meant thinking lags in the respect that you can expect them to raise behind you when limped topreflop, but would equate your raise in EP with a legitimate hand and be less likely to pay you off with a weaker ace or king if you raise PF. Wouldn't you want to do this against a LAG because they are likely to raise you when you are strong and essentially bet your hand for you?
