Vilian is TIGHT and although he could have anything here, feels like a good spot for a shot.
Again, I'd like to hear some discussion on re-steals in general, position, stack size, table dynamics, etc...thanks!

How's your image? I save this play for the times I've been carddead for 3 or more orbits (normally I'm la-aggy so it doesn't come up much). If villain thinks you squeak when you walk I like it, otherwise not worth the risk IMO.
Definite points for the cajone factor though, if I'm villain I just peed myself... your last minraise just SCREAMS monster.
