Like most beginners, I started off attempting a tight aggressive style. After a long while of playing tight, I started to become frustrated seeing people win monster pots with terrible starting hands, loose players that seemed to get lucky too frequently. I would play few hands, get married too much, etc. and just watch the J-8o raiser + the rest of his kind build elaborate palaces with their chip stacks. I was tired of being outplayed by the "stupid". So i tried to play loose as well, gettin in as many cheap flops as possible so i can try to outplay.

Anyway back to the point- LAG holdem teaches u many things, mainly about how much trouble mid pairs on bad kickers get u in. Tight playis easier IMO.
