short theory

[jsnipes28]

If you have position on a bad player I also don't think doing this when deep, say over 200bb, is bad either because if you have a good read on your opponents lines you are oftentimes able to get the pot headsup almost always and can easily control pot size+ have the initiative and of course the ability to win a big pot.

I remember a long time ago at a full 6max table 2/4 where both me and villain had around 250bb+ that every single time I chose to play a hand and he had opened to 16 I was making it 35 or so just to get the pot headsup and be able to dictate the flow. I am not sure how well this would work now at higher limits bc of the likelihood that good players would pick up on it and start 4b u cold or calling ur 3b really light, but whatever just an idea. Oh and it was extremely effective that one time.

In response to the OP, I think there is no problem with this but it can be a little transparent. I would raise in this spot to $100, so 2.5x. Obv they don't have the implied odds, against most short stacks they could shove pre and if they flop any sort of pair / draw they could get it all in.

id make it 110 here if were raising. its the minimum such that the next sensible raise is a push from your opponent.

if they call it leaves them behind with a PSB, which is good.

why does it matter how many bets it takes them to get all in?

We just want them to get all in with nothing but still make them play incorrectly.

there is a time and a place for this: the time is against bad players and the place is at a table with bad players

Also, making it 400 straight can't be that bad. Short stack will call getting 'odds' and someone behind might decide to push in with TT or something.

how bout the same situation but with AK this time?

the problem is you see retards calling off half their stack preflop then check fold when they miss the flop
get as much in now as possible

hmmmm. the way i see it, the fewer streets they have to play post-flop, the fewer opportunities they have to make a correct (re. FTOP) decision, i.e. fold.
