Better for us to use illustrations to prove our point.

@experimentX check this out:

|dw:1370500622725:dw| Two loops of wire.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

As you can see BOTH are closed. So current can flow in both and lenz's law is still in effect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1370500680648:dw| The X mark spot, is now open meaning the loop is not a "closed" path.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

current can NOT flow through both of them regardless of the size.

Yea, but again. Having a larger thickness means there will be more charge to flow from a higher potential to a lower one. But think about it, even if EMF was applied to move te charge from a high potential to low, it can't mainly because the path in which it can move in is open. So it is stuck in the same place unable to move.
