Default Re: How come whenever I go to a live casino it\'s the LAGs who win?

I can think of two reasons:

1) More Information: Good players can have a bigger edge over weaker players live, where they can pick up more information. This allows them to bluff more and play more hands for profit.

2) Variance: If you take 5 LAGs and 5 TAGs at one table, the TAGs will probably be doing better on average while the winningest player for that session will probably be a LAG. To correctly gauge a players winningness you'd need to see how they do over a longer period of time.

I always see these these super lags sitting on huge stacks at the table.. but then I remember that they reloaded their stack a good 4 or 5 times to get their.

This is simple

1) they pick up a top of small pots
2) they get paid off when they have the goods
