To exploit this particular weakness I usually attempt to get a big hand and act weak (ie slowplay). This works only if the LAG loves to fire multiple strong barrels lacking actual hand...

Re: Discuss: Thoughts on Overpairs

In example 2 I don't like the slow play given the 2 clubs. But this is because I never found a player who would raise in EP with QQ+ and fold AKs and AQs, and usually also AJs too. In this case you...

b/3b is bet, getting raised and then reraise, 3-bet.
