does everyone really want to stack off 200 bb's on this flop?

This depends how the money goes in and obviously there is a chance that we will make a mistake against an unknown. I'm not especially happy to make a reasonably-sized three-bet and then call a push/four-bet because I think this really narrows his range to almost exclusively hands that beat us so, as I say, I'd rather call or do something weird like min-raise and keep his range nice and wide and stack off accordingly depending on bet-size and timing, fourth and fifth street. FWIW, I'd suggest that hands like this are trickier for HSMTT players because the ranges are so random and often totally unconnected to the board and what we're representing. I'm pretty sure, however, that he will make way bigger mistakes here, both in terms of telegraphing his holding and getting it in behind, if you three-bet really small. And I'm also sure that, in the Million, OPR-ing villain is somewhat essential.
