Default LAG trying to move up - need advice

Ok so I play NL50 6 max and have a LAG style.

Something like 41.56/17.6/3.51

I am pretty successful at this limit and want to move up to NL100 6 max. I have never played this game before and don't know if my LAG style would be effective there.

So my question is what is the difference between NL50 6 max and NL100 6 max on Party (if any) and would a LAG style work at that limit? Are players generally way more agressive at 100NL 6 max?

that's way too high. laggy should be no more than 28-31%. how many hands have you been the above? what's your ptb/100?

I'm typically TAG but recently have worked some LAG into my game and I play 100NL so I suppose I can throw my opinion in here.

You will find a lot more aggression at 100NL in general, but that's not to say that the average player is aggressive here -- still tonnes of loose passives. You will however find more players who can adapt to your style and exploit you, so you've got to be paying a bit more attention to the table.

Yes, there are some good players at 100NL. Lot of straightforward TAG's, and a couple good LAG's. If you're a good LAG, you'll do great.

GL, and stay the hell away from my tables because I hate playing good LAG's [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Nah, usually it means what it does at the lower limits (monster hand)... but players who adapt to your style will certainly do it to isolate you.

In Whitelime's Mid-High advice to SSNL's series he specifically mentioned that there are regular winners with 50/20 at the 5/10NL games.

Be warned that you shouldn't automatically assume that because a certain player's VPIP is over 30, he is a fish. There is a wide range of styles with which people can play profitably. Believe it or not, there are 50/20's who are winning players at 5/10NL and 10/20NL. However, like most things, you are playing the numbers game. Chances are that a player with a VPIP of 50 is much more likely to be a loser than a player with a VPIP of 15.
