I don't get it. Why reraises all in? How about a standard reraise? What if one of those guys behind you, delegator or Wily woke up with a hand? Both of them have stacks that can hurt you.

Damn, how long are you guys going to ask the same tired questions?  I really thought I have explained this before.  We all play a different game, etc....

Here is a basic expanation.  I have a style that is not refined to say the least.  I don't bet in amounts acceptable by "good" players.  I call bets that "good" players probably wouldn't in most cases.  I am not, nor will I profess to be a "good" player...this is fun for me and I only post here for fun.....

I basically gamble in spots if I think it will help me advance.  That thought of advancing outweighs any thought of busting out, since each time I enter a tourney I count my buy-in as gone.

MrFish:

 Both of them have stacks that can hurt you.

Actually, only one had a stack to hurt him and then not much.  1500ish and 215ish (215 in a blind)

Oh, you meant one of the two that didn't enter the hand.  Nevermind.

Haha, you are a yo-yo first you have like 12k in chips then you somehow go to 3800 and go allin with J-8 off. Man that is sick. Kind of funny though =)
