I think this would be a good play about twice a year in a typical weekly home tournament where the winner and second play ~200 hands per tourn., i.e. about once every 5k hands or so. |
Yep, I've seen this work very well when someone is on a rush or just buying a lot of pots. The rest of the players get tired of folding and watching the same guy win. Eventually, one of them will get frustrated enough to get involved with a weaker hand, thinking there's no way this guy has had a hand every time.
If anything, if a guy has been raking pots left and right and then all of a sudden puts on the check/call routine, I'd be very suspicious.
