You know the L in LAG doesn't stand for limp, right?

This is like pointing to the sky and say it's day time.

I get it now. You think of LAG as someone who's loose and aggressive when they have it. Like as in someone who limps with 72 and raises with 22A flop.

You know that big bets on turn vs draw are two completely different scenarios?

Finally some useful information...So he's basically a typical 1/2 player who limps wide, raises when he has something, and folds when he doesn't.

The whole premise is wrong.

Dude...this is some bad read.

Right, x + y = z. Solve for z. But pay attention to x, because it's important!
