Re: Theory: preflop 3x the BB raise from the Button
[ QUOTE ]
so to contrast, with lags in the blinds - bigger, 4-5x is good; tags in blinds - smaller, 2.5-3.5 range.
I like knocking it down to a statement or two. is this about right?

i don't really think a good lag is gonna call you anymore than a good tag as calling a lot out of the blinds is not a great play.
a lag may 3bet you more often though, so that may change whether you wanna 3x it or 4x it. i noted in my post on this topic (there is a linky above) that you can usually call just for set value if you like against a 3bet when you 3x it. note: i'm not saying you should set mine against a lag here cos his range will be too wide to pay you off much, but i'm just noting for arguments sake
