My New Thing ... starring K8o
 

This dude is 60/2/.65. I just started doing this with high top pairs. Thoughts? Obviously it's not good against a real passive player, but I think it's +EV here.

In my experience this is exactly what it looks like happens.

PAHud will show a hand so bizarre for him, i begin to wonder if it's broken.

...or the move is just that good.

so people end up calling down a flop check/raise with a hand they'd have folded to a flop lead?

Very simply, yes. They feel commited to their bluff.

I believe this is wrong followed simply by you can't even know if it is right or wrong, but it probably is almost certainly wrong.

aggro players will bet the flop HU 99% of the time when checked to them, so this seems standard.

by "it" do you mean mainly the check with K8o?
