The Dude checks, <font color="red">Button bets</font>, <font color="red">The Dude raises</font>, planning on folding to a 3-bet, and betting the river if called.

I'm thoroughly convinced this line is far superior to putting in a pf 3-bet or flop cr. In this kind of steal situation the flop gets checkraised with all kinds of draws and overcards and complete crap. If my hand were stronger and I didn't mind if Button pushed back, fine, cr the flop. But with 3rd pair, after I put in my raise if he pushes back I have to fold, so I can wait 'till the turn where it's a lot easier to represent a real hand.

I think this might be good ...
I've started playing 6max (1-2, 2-4) in the past couple of weeks ... and the flop check raise is not going over (I guess because it's too 'standard' a line) ...

I do like the strength that this shows, and may even get villian to fold a better hand on occasion
