I see where you are coming from EP, but the re-minraise does have merit. Here you sit with a huge hand against what is most likely a weak ass steal attempt. Any big raise blows him out of the water and what you really want to do is extract as much as possible out of him with this hand. It's transparent as all hell but so what? If you just flat call he's most likely going to freeze up and not put in another chip. But minraising him back gives what, 5-1 on a call? He's going to feel obligated to call at the very least. I like it.
