These always bug me. You'll find some opponents doing it with a flush draw, some with a set (rarely in this case), maybe two pair ?

Anyway, I don't see the rationale behind villain's play at all.

I'd say that's the situation here, either he think somebody will pay his big hand or he's just hoping everybody folds.

I fin that you ahve to call here more often than not causde your usually against a draw or even a weaker K, rather than a set ot two pair.

When people do this with 100BB stacks, they have two pair / set more often than crap.
