this is a great question to think about.
its very tempting to try and isolate the fish everytime he limps with any kind of playable hand. however this tactic is not likely to work for very long as it soon be obvious to the LAG and the TAG what you're doing, resulting in them 3 betting you lightly and making you take a flop with them HU or 3 way OOP. i actually think this seat has a lot of metagme considerations to it. try to iso-raise for awhile, and when the LAG and TAG catch on, nit it up again by either limping behind the fish or tightening up entirely (by folding). then again switch gears.
in the same vein, in seat 6, you can play more aggressively vs the TAG's and LAG's iso-raises and widen your 3 betting range in position, collecting the dead money from the tight passive and average joe and possibly the fish as well. you may also consider cold calling with a fair number of hands, trying to keep teh blinds + fish in the pot in position.
i think that seat 6 and 2 can both be profitable, but i think that it would take considerably more skill to make the same amoutn of a money in seat 2 vs seat 6. however, if seat 3 is a TAGfish who plays with dogmatic preflop standards, and the LAG is a poor player, seat 2 may work out just fine.
