Ok I did not understand the reply... Pushing the flop is bad?

[/ QUOTE ]

no you have to push the flop now but you didn't need to get into this spot in the first place. He has reraised a limper from the SB, what hand are you putting him on to reraise him?

If hes not terrible, he shouldn't be putting in another chip with a worse pair, and if its a race then you got lucky.

Much easier to see a flop and play poker. Im not calling to flop a set, but if we get allin preflop we are never going to be ahead by much. We can see a flop, call a cbet and have enough chips left to do various things on the turn. On some flops you can just fold to a cbet.

I am trying to experiment with playing LAG, since I always end up in a 50/50 situasion for all my chips in the late stages since I dont accumulate enough chips in the early stages.. I just wanted to know what 2+2ers thought about this type of play

lag is getting value from your big hands by a bad image and them making mistakes vs you not trying to get 50bbs in with 9s PF.

thats not lag thats retarded. you will win more expected chips by making just a normal 3k-3500 continuation bet and can fold to any raise because your line looks ridiculously strong here and your opponent will be bluffing 0% of the time.
