also, if you want to pull a move like this and have position always reraise, never wait for the turn to be checked to you (sometimes it won't) or dear lord-try and check raise the turn (the pot will be too big compared to your stack, and threat of a real hand too real).
however, if you have anti-position then the better line is check-call, lead.
