Re: this hand just hurt my head
Unorthodox, but not abnormal at this level.
I'd say this line represents one of two lines of thinking most of the time:
1. "oh crap, I have a huge hand!" (where huge hand could be any two pretty diamonds) "let me make a tiny bet so that he'll raise me. aha! he fell into my trap, i'll just make it a tiny bet bigger, 'extract' chips because i heard somebody on tv use that phrase"
2. "you shall fear the wrath of my minbet! you bastard, how could you not fold, let's see how you like another taste!" (this line can be taken with ATC, often with 3rd pair or an under pair)
I think for the purposes of this hand it's probably #1
