So a good player in that spot will sometimes raise with any two cards, because he knows that anyone who wants to play with him has to put their whole stack at risk (or half their stack in Blacks case).

Harrington in last year's WSOP did it to Arieh and Raymer, as seen on TV. And it happens all the freakin time online (ever seen Dr. Gammon play?)
I'm not saying he's doing it with pure trash, but hands like AJs-AT/KQ/99-77 are very possible raise-fold-to-reraise hands here and potentially much wider depending on table dynamics.
