Default TAG or LAG(NL50)

I'm experimeting with aggression and different playing styles.

It feels like at NL50 it is much more profitable to be a LAG, like 30/15 then playing TAG 22/10.

The reasoning is people tend to fold WAY too much to CB-s, PLUS they overplay hands vs LAGS. But I havent played much NL50 yet, so I cant really tell.

Your thoughts?

better game selection and play TAG. NL50 players overvalue and overplay hands. bet for value.

The problem with LAG play is that it is mentally exhausting. You have to be fully concentrated at the table to make money. Also, any mistake can cost you dearly, and once in a while you'll get a player who's good enough to really tear your style apart (get out of there!). But I do it anyway. More fun, plus I've never been really successful TAG.

The main problem with LAG play for me is that when I hold TPTK for example and I'm played back at strongly is to figure if they have the nuts or just pushing their TPGK hard, because I'm LAG.

Other then that it is fun being LAG [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

play tag, they don't adjust nearly as much as you would think. plus, most people aren't good enough to make lag play super profitable. but pick your spots, there are a good amount of weaktights now to go with the donks

making continuation bets does not count as LAG.
