Re: Possible trend, Anyone else notice this?

The play always seems very tight at this stage, with the action being either "fold to the button, raise, win the blinds" or "all-in".

This does have some advantages. Stealing blinds is critical at this stage, and it is much easier when the game is tighter. Doing so also makes up for the missed action that your monster hands don't get.
I don't advocate this play as a rule, but if there is a known agressive player in late position it can be +EV.
The last time I tried this I limped AA and 6 people including the blinds came in. I was so pissed at myself.
