I hear you, but maybe some of us are born lucky. When I play that way, I just lose faster, so I stopped doing it.
In micro limits though, the idea that the opponent has a mind to get inside of is rarely true.
And just going back to the bully concept, I find it amusing that when if I double up on a guy it has no effect, but if I do it again they frequently get a case of the jitters and stop doing it. Sometimes it takes three times, but only the outright loonies persist, and they are unlikely to keep their chips anyway.
I dunno, maybe you get luckier than me when you try to make things happen. I can only go on my experience, just as you must go on yours. If I never cashed I might be more inclined to change, but when you are ahead you stick with what caused that.
