    I think it's worth noting that your raise size is really bad and the type of thing that does induce spazz shoves. I also don't think it's an unfair assumption for me to make either that you raised so small because you were scared of being beat, which is quite bad.

    I raised small because I thought I could get a small raise called by his worse jacks and maybe even his slowplayed overpairs. If I'd raised bigger, I think even against a fish I'm just isolating myself with better hands and folding out the ones that I beat.

    No, it just looks silly and makes people do silly things as a result. We don't want people doing silly things in this spot, it makes our life difficult. We either raise for value (bigger) or we call.
