Apparently I'm a real big fish.

Yup, once a day probably. Very profitable.

Do any of you guys do intentional things to look like a fish, or make big image plays when you sit down? I've always thought about intentionally losing the first pot in a ridiculous way to make the table think I'm a moron (or making a huge bluff with junk and showing it). I wonder if you could make back enough later to make it worthwhile.

I have a leak where when I first sit at a table I make huge bluffs, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. I wonder how -EV this leak is sometimes though for my image... maybe +EV?

A good one is when you've been jamming at someone and constantly stealing his blinds, and he bursts out, "keep on doing that you idiot, I'll get you eventually". Obviously, nine out of ten times they get frustrated and push with some sort of crap like top pair Tens, ace kicker. It's priceless.

Another one is when you raise some limpers with a hand like 67 and flop the straight, get all in vs. some sort of suited K with the flush obviously hitting on the river, and then have to hear the whole table going, "that's what you get for playing those crappy hands!"
