Default TAG to LAG

Can you be a long term winning player playing more than 40% pre flop?

i have switched my game from TAG (vpip% below 30) to a vpip over 40. I dont go too far with marignal hands but i feel the implied odds are worth 3x BB call with hands like 10j, small pockets, etc. I feel that playing TAG in high stakes NL is so predictable and easy to lose big money to others playing bust'm open hands when your KA does finally hit on the flop.


thoughts?

Then back to TAG .. then back to LAG.

Time zone depends how often you run hot at each stage.
