Default WHATS UP WITH THE DONK CHECKING ?

Is it just me or do people check more heads up either after 3betting out of the blind or they cap preflop heads up ?

It used to be strong hands very often, the first one especially, but not so sure anymore.

Thoughts ?

I agree, also like I said to you earlier I think at 10/20 the frequency with which pre-flop raisers are checking the flop multiway has massively increased.

OK, so both bets and checks are becoming harder to predict and interpret. Does this mean the games are getting tougher?

Heads up it is almost always a big hand at 5/10. Of course the definition of "big hand" varies by opponent. But it is almost always with the intention of checkraising the flop or the turn. I haven't noticed any change lately.
