Nath, interesting post for sure. Aren't you worried though that in one single hand your table image can go from TAG to "maniac who will push any two" with a play like this? All of a sudden, you're getting played back at with far more than 21% of the hands that BB would have called with before and the +EV of any similar play just went down the toilet.

LOL at the idea that my image is ever TAG. My image is usually that of a complete lunatic who is not only raising all sorts of random garbage but also calling with it. And who wants to take a hand that might be marginally +cEV against a psycho who's definitely calling and might have you crushed?

If I folded to reraises all the time people would play back at me much more frequently. But since they KNOW I'm calling that keeps them in line.
