Rebuy Tourney: Hand 5, Sending the message: I'm going all-in on the flop every hand
This was the hand immediately after the KK where I had also moved all-in on the flop (with no showdown). I thought this might inspire someone to try to make a brilliant play trying to pick me off with a mediocre hand.
It's also nice to let the opponents know I'm going to throw my whole stack at them fairly often. :cool:
After this hand, all aces [observer] said, "bully" to which I replied:
ScottyZ said, "yeah, he was"
ScottyZ said, "betting 200 at me like that"
Making your opponents seem lame while still being mostly polite. I liked that exchange.

I do see where you're coming from, though. You'd just moved in the hand before, and now you want people to think that you're in 'move-in maniac' mode. Too bad he didn't call.
