But if I hit the Jack, it is usually them that are toast now. No?

[/ QUOTE ]Not really. They're only going to put in a lot of action if they can beat a big pair, and if you play back they're only going to put in a lot of action if they can beat an improved big pair.

And mostly you're going to be toasted by the fact that they simply can fold a lot of extra hands when you bring-in big.

It's not concealed if you bring-in big only with that sort of hand. And if you start doing that with bad hands you're screwed putting in a ton of action with bad hands. If you start bringing in big with all sorts of hands you're screwed when you bring-in small since it's an easy raise with 100% of the hands from steal position.

Bringing in big really only is a good idea when there's exceptionally bad players in the game. I'm pretty sure everyone would be better off by eliminating the option completely and start doing "autopost bring-in" like blinds are autoposted in hold'em.
