Default Angle shooting at low limits

I have read a couple of posts/articles on techniques like pretending to misclick - i have tried this a few times, e.g at NL100 raising AA to $40 (instead of $4) or whatever but havnt had any bites so far.

Anyone use any techniques like this regularly with success?

I doubt many people are fooled by this. Even if they are, nobody's calling 40xBB preflop without a huge hand anyway, so you likely won't be inducing action that you otherwise wouldn't get.

If you like to fake a misclick rather raise to $44, 45, 46.
Anyway ... I dont think this is +EV.

(although ... I had a phonecall some weeks ago and KK on the button, I pushed, went to the phone and had some shortys stacked when I came back)

After reraising with the nuts on a flop/turn, saying something like "lol flush draw eh?" while they have requested time seems to get the money in rather quickly.

Uh, learn to play poker instead of crappy angle shots?
-good job wasting your AA hands
-Even if it was a real misclick and you were holding 72 so someone decided to push I don't see anyone thinking:
"oh lolzers@!! he misclicked to $40 I have 66 I should push all in!!!LolerskATESZ!#$#%@#^%&"
