I never said we shouldn't shove. This is the most obvious spot in the world.
But how often do we see threads like this:
1. Easy spot
2. Insult the other players
3. If you put hero's hand into pokerstove pre-flop it's behind ATC
4. No useful reads, no analysis, no poker content, etc.
My point is that this isn't how we take advantage of weak players. If everyone played their cards face up through the whole hand -- no one would have done anything differently.
If someone was a lousy poker player he would be happy playing against the guy who created this thread.
