Default Re: 1/2 NL with 100 max buy in.

I think the bad players are more likely to call a big stack push precisely because it looks like bullying to them. If another $100 stack pushes all-in then ZOMG they must have a big hand to risk their whole stack!

Actually, I don't really believe that either. If a bad player is going to call a bet, they're going to call a bet. The size of the stack that made the bet is <5% of the decision if that. Bad players play their hand and stop thinking (if they ever started).

I've been avoiding the whole silly argument, but this statement is so freaking true it bears repeating.
