I finally cleared my Interpoker bonus, but cant get my money out for some reason (I'll figure it out later). Today they give me another bonus to clear, so I opened up 4 $1/$2 tables and decided to play wild for a change. These were my stats:

hands---VP$IP---Att. Steal Blinds---W$WSF---BB/100---PFR%-------TotAggFactor
229------26.20---26.47----------------51.95-----24.56-----20.09 ---3.84

I've never been succesful playing this LAGgy, and I am certain I was on the plus side of some major variance, but it was a blast. All four tables were on tilt the entire time. I was constantly called down by bottom pair, etc. This of course resulted in some bad beats but it was well worth the extra fun, and built the pots I won. I made $112 in less than an hour, and with the number of players on this site, they will definately remember me next time we play. I've gotta try this on Party some time.
Is that guy still part of the forum??

Be careful...many times I have had a similar run in the 200-500 card range. Then, as I continue the LAG-y play, the odds catch up with me, and I get a smack down.

I see it a lot on PTY...guys play 200 hands at, say 35% VP$IP, and win like bandits. I won't believe they're good until I see them do it twice, and thrice.

Congrats, though...definitely fun to play more hands and win a bunch. If you can keep it up, you're post-flop play must be quite sharp, IMO

Another thought...did you win some scary pots early on? Maybe this allowed you to steal some pots and scare away drawers.

You must have had them running away with your aggression factor, and the ones that came back at you must have picked the wrong time!

I didnt win any major pots early at these tables, I think the players just suck.
