i go down to a/c for a few days and come back to find this forum, cool. i have a great hand for it too. 5-10nl game, there's a guy at the table with about a 10k stack, and he's been having fun by minraising every hand preflop. another big stack at the table has been playing along and min-re-raising, then 10k-stack would min-3rd-raise, etc. i thought it was a hoot, it also helped build big pots, so i played along a couple times too. then this hand came up:

i'm in the sb with aces, one ep limper, 10k-stack minraises to 20, i reraise to 40, ep calls 2 cold. 10k-stack obliges by reraising to 60, i reraise to 80, ep calls 2 more cold. 10k-stack reraises of course. at this point the whole table is cracking up. now i decide, ok, time to bomb it, and push a 500 stack of greens in. the ep guy trapped by all those raises and reraises moves in his whole stack of about 1k with ATo. hehehe, good times.
