So, if you checkraise and the CO is anywhere near competent he will not be folding a 9 or a ten.

I disagree with this. I think that most competent players who only call the flop (a sign that if they have a pair, it's weak) are looking for a reason to fold, and Baronzeus gave them one by making it 2-bets to them.

Wait, what? Any compitent player is calling here, putting Button on a draw, and Baron on A-high...I mean if Baron had anything hes betting the river...if I was CO Im not looking to fold there...seriously, Baron checked the turn and the river, then checkraised...if Im holding mid-pair/top pair Im good there quite often.
I think u are mixing compitent, with a weak unthinking player. Both are different.
EDIT: But yes, if it makes CO fold a pair a percentage of the time its worth it (my only problem is pot size, anyway I just got up, so Im going to read the rest of the responses as my head is a little fuzzy right now). But most loose players will call here, and weak players will fold.
