Default check check bet

The line most (+ev) players take when way ahead or way behind is to c/c c/c b/f.

Since this line is extremely easy to spot when it happens against you, and we can somewhat define our opponents hand in this position, does anyone feel this would be a worthwhile spot to make a river bluff-raise?

If we got headsup by 3-betting a raise and having the blinds fold, then when we reach the river decision there will be 6.25bb's in the pot.

It would take 2bb's to bluff, so this would approximately need to work 1/3 of the time to be profitable.

I've never done this myself, and not sure I ever will. Just wondering whether anyone else sees any validity in a play like this.
