I vote A. I occassionally do this. Very situational.

Well, thats why i do it, i imagine most donks do it for all of the reasons plus the reason 'too [censored] lazy to use the slide bar'

Agreed. The only time I've done this is when I've flopped a monster, checked into some nice action and decided to throw the rope out a little further.

This is so player dependant. I've seen this done with a naked flush draw, and I've seen it done with a flopped straight.

It usually means either big draw or big monster.

I forgot that i also do it on occassion if i want to give myself a free card when drawing to flush (occassionally straight).

Usual 'give yourself free cards 101' rules apply.

I had someone do this to me in one of the 2+2 25NL cash games. I had A8s on a 3 8 3 rainbow board, checked to me and I bet. The other guy min-raises, and somehow I end up all-in (gambool!). He had queens, but I luckboxed another 8 on the river. Bwahaha. Ship it.

So yeah, A.
