What constitutes a "good" or "profitable"

Any ideas? Correct me if i'm wrong, a table is good if I have position on tight players and give up position on loose players. Or is it the other way around?

if you play TAG then a good, profitable table for you would be a table that had lots of loose players....

Generally speaking, other way around. Ideally you'd have the laggs on your right and the rocks on your left...

NO!!! lukie was right. u want a LAGG opponent on ur left so u can see how everyone else reacts to each of his bets

More info needed. Are villains aggressive? Tricky?
I'll give a generic answer with an additional category of 'smart Lagg' (a Lagg who plays well post-flop)

• loose players - on my right; I want to raise/re-raise to isolate them as much as possible; also I want position since I'll be playing more pots with them.
  tight players - on my left; they'll play fewer hands (esp against a raise) so giving them position is not a big deal. If they raise/re-raise they have something good; play accordingly.
  smart Laggs - across the table. These guys are a pain. Having them across the table minimizes the hands you'll play against them.
