I have always been a tight player.Recently i am trying to get better at being a LAG.I get lost often in hands so i will to post as many hands as i can these days.Game #2855482593: Omaha PL ($0.15/$0.25) - 2006/12/22 - 10:53:15 (DST)Table "Eduardo" Seat 1 is the button. Seat 1: allan++ ($59.80 in chips)Seat 3: Greyho003 ($6.35 in chips)Seat 4: Ben030269 ($38.33 in chips)Seat 5: jeffss ($24.30 in chips)Seat 6: Mcgrory ($18.41 in chips)Seat 7: 123123123 ($25 in chips)Seat 8: orchard6 ($21.25 in chips)Seat 9: nasseseta ($44.72 in chips)Seat 10: 10dullcar ($31.80 in chips)Greyho003: posts small blind $0.15Ben030269: posts big blind $0.25123123123: posts big blind $0.25----- HOLE CARDS -----dealt to jeffss [Ah 7c 7s 6h]jeffss: calls $0.25Mcgrory: calls $0.25123123123: checksorchard6: raises to $1.65nasseseta: calls $1.6510dullcar: foldsallan++: foldsGreyho003: calls $1.50Ben030269: calls $1.40jeffss: calls $1.40Mcgrory: calls $1.40123123123: calls $1.40----- FLOP ----- [2s 4h Th]Greyho003: checksBen030269: checksjeffss: bets $11.55This Board seemed pretty dry to me and it looked like a good spot to semi-bluff.Is check calling this flop better?

I like it. What I don't like is that there are 4people still to act behind you.

Hi, your play style really isn't lag. Your just passive preflop and hoping to hit something and then get aggressive. No offense.By Lag it means you raise preflop almost everyhand except SB, BB, UTG and UTG+1, and play postflop carefully yet aggressively. Your the center of the table, you need to bet the pots that no one can call, and if you hit it you will usually get paid since others will lower their standards against you. Also, you are not only playing your hands, you are also playing your opponents' hands. It's fun to be LAG, but you need to make sure you stay sharp all the time. If I am tired or having a bad time, I will stay more conservative.PS now provides 6-max and it's good to be lag at those tables.Die the nutpeddlers and the 20-max buy-in players, they will get buried alive SH.

I shouldn't have called it LAG.I just noticed that people usually overplay their hands in preflop raised pots so i am trying to see more flops and be more aggressive post flop. I get lost pretty often i am not the best with the odds i guess.
