I know people who have played with this strategy. The one thing you didn't mention is that (assuming they don't break the table) there are more chips at the table for you to win. (I'm sure some people will argue that this is a form of chip dumping.)

Anyway, though I don't know that there are any hard statistics, most people I've talked to agree that going this wild doesn't have a positive expectation. I look forward to reading what other people think about this.
