FWIW, I've seen lags use the minraise to their advantage.
They'll basically minraise everytime someone raises, and they cue in on whether to be aggressive or not on the next street by whether they get re-raised. It's obviously an exploitable strategy, but I've seen it work at some tables.
Of course these same lags will let themselves get stacked w/ an overpair if you keep minraising back at them [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
LAGS only got a small stack left, but that's because I just stacked him a few hands back, and he's tilted some of his rebuy away already.
