Default All in for 50 hands = 20x buy in??? (Low on strategy/high on humor)

I just had the most surreal experience. On Pokerroom when you made deposit you get $10,000 of play money. Because I cash out/deposit regularly I always have $10,000 of play money where as people really trying to play with it only start with $1,000 and can reload to $1,000 2x a day.

A while ago I decided I should give away that play money because I really would have appreciated the same when I was a play money player. Usually I sit at a table announce I don’t care about the play money and will be all in every hand until I am busted. This strategy (can you even call it that?) last about a round or two until people usually realize I am serious after showing 72o a time or two when they folded.

Today I sat at a full $25/$50NL table, announced my intentions, and bought in for the max $2,500. Within about 25 hands I had 25,000 going all in every hand except a few I folded accidentally. I also folded a few random hands to this idiot who couldn’t stop telling me how bad I sucked after I told him it was a x-mas giveaway.

I kept going all in like that until the entire table was busted. I am in shock most of them couldn't figure out to wait for an ace to call. More people came and 25 hands later I had $50,000 from my $2,500 buy in for $60,000+ chips. I gave back around $8,000 to someone I had sucked out with AK and KK at a private table to end up with about $54,000 in my account all by going all-in every hand from a $2,500 buy-in. God I wish winning real money were that easy.
