So you guys want to see a LAG in action? (Full HH)

[Ansky]

Full HH of the 200 rebuy from today (despite gobbo writing 100r on the label thingy). Since we have been discussing LAG play so often here these days, and it's all the rage for tourneys, I thought this was a perfect HH to submit right now. Some of my plays probably seem borderline wreckless, or totally insane, but I was not drunk or on any other drugs while playing this tournament.

LAGGY ANSKY

So would you consider your play good or bad on the whole in this tournament? Some of the stuff was pretty zany (your 6c3c hand comes to mind as one, reraising a MP raiser with a5o, etc.), but overall so far in the hands I've seen (at around 40), you haven't been faring that badly and it actually looks a little bit like how I play. (which is inspiring for my game, letting me know things such as: check/folding frequently is not an embarassing humiliation of my poker abilities, edit:despite my being a lag preflop.)

this was a really fun replay to watch, but I gotta say the hand that most impressed me was hand 161

typo? or am i not getting something by skipping right to that?

[NHFunkii]

yeah, watch the whole thing and you should understand why I said that

I'll get around to it, but for whatever reason PXF sucks for me. It never responds when I click stuff, whether I'm using Firefox or IE.

Thanks for posting this.
I'm going to post some of the hands and ask some very elementary questions.

Hand 23: you open raise 3x from EP for the second hand in a row, this time with 63c and then c-bet the two flush K910 flop. Button calls. Button has 8458 behind and you have 16645. Turn brings a 6 and you check.

Two questions. Why no second barrel with pair and flush draw? Secondly, I fold 63s from EP after raising previous hand because I feel I'm more likely to get action. Do you find this and is getting action with marginal hands OOP part of the function of having a large stack?

It seemed to me that you only played laggy when you should of, rather than played the entire tournament laggy.

The player in two to your left early (bcans) was way too weak tight(which is more obvious b/c we see your cards btw, maybe it wasn't as obvious to him). You took advantage of both his lack of blind defense and apparent lack of knowledge/courage to re-steal from you. He consistently folded his blinds and when he defended, he only called your raise and left you in position.

More than anything here, I think it was the situation (other players) that made LAG effective here. I think you recognized this too as you turned it off a bit at different tables and of course when players got very shortstacked and were going A/I.

Nice job sir. Thanks for the post.
