I hate flopping mediore hands...

Villain is a big LAG and the reason I'm at the table, 44/28/3. Against even slightly loose players I'm probably mucking on the flop, but what's your plan with this guy?

What does he think of you? Is he any good, or just a LAGtard?

He probably sees me as semi LAG(28/23ish) but I can't remember any specific history with him other than he loves to bluff call.

I sometimes just call and bet/fold the turn.

you have top pair vs a lag in a blind vs blind. Don't fold. Depending if he's a lag capable of bluffing 3 streets I'd probably either call down or fake block the river and call a push.

Who was this hand against?

this is pretty bad. if he's as laggy as you say, then I'd check/call turn and river as well.

I hate this raise OOP.

Flop TPNK against a LAG, you should be looking to keep the pot small.

I recommend you try to get a seat change too. If you double up he has you way covered and has position 2/3 hands. Unless he is a donkey, he should be happier with the seating arrangement than you.

So I called the flop raise, now do you call the push? I don't know if he would push this hard with a KJish type hand and KQ/AK are reraising me pf unless he tried to get crafty with them but like I said I don't have a good read on his style other than he's really LAG.

this is really a bad raise unless you snap call this turn.
