I probably just reraise as planned and don't get too tricky.

I've been trying to understand it since reading my first Davo thread.
It seems to me that the bigger the pot gets as the hand progresses, the more it plays like a limit game, and the less like no limit, such that we'd want to apply max pressure and get max value on earlier streets, but become more showdown oriented as we approach the river. Any late street bluffs would seem less likely to get through if they're not a continuation of early street aggression.
This is why I suggested raising to the max. Hero got what he wanted when the SB raises over all the limps. Time to go for max value with KK in our LRR line.
I don't know if Davo's LRR strat is the ideal approach to manipulate the pot size pre, but it would seem in line with the overall strat of bloating the pot on earlier streets with thick value, to reduce the likelihood of being outdrawn or getting blown off our equity on later streets. I wonder if he's not seeing a trend of opponents who are inelastic when it comes to limping or calling a single raise, but who otherwise over-fold to big 3B's.
