I have been asking myself this question alot how I play LAG is in position obv and against tight opponents who are pretty easy to range. The problem I am having is playing the perfect LAG game like what hands to play etc. If anyone could give me some insight to LAG play that would be much appreciated.

i dont thin theres such thing as a manual for perfect LAG game. LAG is about creative play and reading ure opponents. i tried it myself but apparently im not good enough for it. i guess it comes handy in higher limits, in micros i dont think it can be very profitable, cause fish and donks are not that easy to read

You can practically play any two but it's your ability to understand where your hand is after the flop that will either make or break you as a LAG player.

preflop ranges are important for a lag game also, especially in SnGs.

I think at higher stakes its possible but never at micros or low.

Raise, raise, and raise. And Steel near 100 % from CO,BTN,and SB.

A lot of C-bet, a lot of 2nd barrel.

Today session at NL5 FR MSS LAG.

My result at NL5 FR playing LAG style poker:

I don't think LAGs 3bet 5.8% and Sqz 2% only. Maybe you're MSS so you can't 3bet as wide but I'm pretty sure BSS LAGs 3bet a wider range and squeeze more often.
