thanks man, most of them i know, they are pretty easy to figure out, some of them were just baffling me. even though i've been playing for years i'm still a newbie at some of it. thanks again.

UTG = Under the gun = First player to act before the flop.

TAG = Tight-Aggressive = A player who doesn't play that many hands but generally plays aggressively when he is involved in a hand.

LAP - I must be honest I dunno this one. Is it Loose-Aggressive Player, Loose and Passive, or something else?

If there are others, just googling "poker acronyms" or something will probably net you a few decent results.

Edit: lol i post slowaments
