Default Re: beating predictable TAGs

Depends on what sort of TAG - just because they are tight pre-flop and aggressive it doesn't mean they are laying down to a CB or raise from you.

What you need to know is how weak tight they are - check out stuff like 'folds to flop bet'%, WtSD% and W$SD%

A great way of hitting a TAG is calling with position with pocket pairs and suited connectors and hitting - they often fire barrels on all streets with TPTK or Overpair.

If they are the sort of player that just fires one barrel on the flop and then slows down unless they really hbit, then just make like a sponge - call em down on flop and turn adn hit them with a pot-sized bet on river..

Be very careful of any TAG who raised pre-flop and then checks the flop (eps. if there is no ace on it). TAG's don't see the flop much and when they do they will almost always make a CB. For them not to with one or two opponents is a warning signal.
