LAGG style poker

How do you play decent LAGG poker?

I see a lot of tutorials around on how to play TAGG poker, but never anything about LAGG?

Anyone got a basic explanation on how to play LAGG?

yea, play more hands than a TAGG.

that's it? play more hands? any other differences in strategy?

..and be able to withstand more variance.

Read hands really good, read opponents really good

Be reading people good.

Get excellent postflop / reading skills. Be able to fold lukewarm hands after the flop, given resistance.

Learn to play TAG really well, then slowly loosen up - you;ll soon see what works and what doesn't. That;s my new theory anyway.
I thought I was ok LAG (25-10 ish) as i increased my bankroll. Then over the last 10k hands I'm only just making money. I thought this was variance, looking more closely I think that the upswing was variance (PT stats show that I'm losing most of my money on speculative hands).
Good luck

So now I'm trying to become a halfway decent TAG player. Then I'll loosen up.
