Poker Glossary

LAG

A loose-aggressive style: playing many starting hands and playing them with relentless betting and raising pressure. Executed with judgment, LAG is devastating — constant pressure forces mistakes and wins pots no cards deserved; without the judgment underneath, it is just fast leaking. Also, ahem, our initials.

At the table

The LAG opens the cutoff a sixth straight orbit, barrels two streets on A♥8♦3♣ with nothing, and shows it. Now every value hand he plays gets paid triple.

House note

Loose-aggressive done right looks reckless and audits flawless. We named the site after it. Draw your own conclusions.
