at my first post i didn't understand that he would rais if we limped just that he might limp and that the bb would therefore often call. If we limp and the lag aswell then the posters get in for free, wich i dont like... Anyway i may be wrong, cos i'm not sure how it would affect the postflop play, but i think we have an eage and i think would be +ev to raise

Would limp/reraise be absolutely absurd? Cause it sounds kind of sexy.

This was actually my first thought. But do we really want to do this against a LAG and posters(im guessing very loose).

Yes, I like it against a LAG who raises any two, and posters who are playing any two.

Ideally, the posters check, the SB raises, you 3-bet, the posters fold and you get HU with the maniac.

But since the SB can't be counted on to do this (not to mention, the second poster should raise the first time around if he has a clue), it's probably not a viable line.

I played this hand. You are making a false assumption. The posters will fold. They posted in a freaking 6max game. It will take dynamite to get them out of the pot.

I just called. The LAG at the table was a 30/27 type who loved to open-raise, but didn't have a death-wish or anything. I limped expecting a limped pot most times. I planned just to call if the LAG raised because it would indicate a reasonable holding on his part. Also, a three-bet would fold the posters just about never.

I also have more leverage and a smaller pot if I do connect with the flop and want to pop the flop or turn to drive out the posters. If I bloat the pot by three betting, they will be correct to call two-bets cold on the flop with all sorts of skanky holdings.
