I'm not posting my good moves!

There was a rationale.

It's a 335 not a 27. Apart from DDBeast in the BB, I'd decided the other players were pretty donkish. However, I was really playing for the experience, since I have never played a Stars 335, and so I had played standard tight/uber tight weak early. So, I was pretty sure that I had masses of FE. I expected AT and 22-66 to fold to me here, a good percentage of the time. So in my head I think I take 225 chips 65ish % of the time, and win a call 30%. That was good enough for me.

Plus typically a 1st shove from a >10BB stack with blinds at 150/75 gets instafolded. DDBeast obv had QQ for the set.

One of the most common mistakes is putting too much stock in people playing different as you move up. They play different, but not usually by as much as you expect. I think good advice for anyone is just to play exactly the same until you pick up on subtle probability differences in buyins - through experience.
