Default Re: 25NL: I shove 200BB preflop! Standard?

Maybe at the higher levels but this is NL25 and these are special players.

Try to get in the head of a 58/37, they are a very different beast even from a 35/17.
Why are they at a table? Same reason they play blackjack or roulette.
I have seen Q8 and K3 arrr in from these donks.

Im not shoving to make him fold or to cut down his odds (he is far enough behind as it is) Im shoving because I want him to call.
What Im thinking here is the opposite of a "Stop & Go". You dont want to let your opponent off the hook by seeing that he has missed the flop.

I dont think calling is all that bad but I really do think that shoving is the more +EV of the two.
