By betting less then all in but enough so that your opponents know you are commited represents a stronger hand then the one you hold which is a good thing, and you have no risk of an opponent repushing with nothing since they *know* they will be called. Make sense?

I don't think they know they will be called. 200-300 is a good bet if you have nothing and just want to take a stab at the pot. In this case, I'm certainly not calling if raised.

I see your point, but I'm not sure it applies in this case and, if it did, I'm sure Harrington would have stated this in his reasoning.
