i think raymer is right on here IMHO.. say you raise.. and he doesnt pay you off.. he's not seeing your hand regardless and will play the river a little more cautiously on you which will allow you to make plays and has great meta value.

i think you get a crying call from villain here a lot of the time.

how will not showing your hand allow you to make plays? seems the opposite should be true. it will be more difficult to make plays, since villain will now want to look you up.

and thats a problem?

edit: its certainly better than having villain call and look you up as far as metavalue is concerned IMO.
