He's probably just tilting or something.

Last time I played a 6 I open shoved AK or AQ first hand and got called by T8o.

That's not very good emotional control on his part. I played 3 games in a row (there is a poker god), and he did not deviate from that strategy. I see I played him in an 11 a while back, but I can't tell if he used the same strategy or not.

Request that HH from PokerStars if you've played him in an 11 before.

Anyways, this is not a winning style, even at the 5s.

some people are just bad, the droolers in the $5's aren't going to adjust to the guy so he can win some when they call his all ins with crap. After he gets up to the 20's he isn't going to win.

When I'm playing a REALLY bad person I like to keep the pots small and not gamble, I'll rob them blind, but if they play back, I'm folding all but the best hands.

Sounds like you just met a mediocre player on monkey tilt. I doubt it's his actual "strategy" (though it wouldn't surprise too much if it was).

I played a guy like this once, back when I played 10s.

It was a total joke. I minraised 100%, and he basically just folded his blinds to me nonstop. I would have thought he was away, except that I was chatting with him the whole time.

Like several have said, he was likely just tilting or drunk or something. I seriously doubt that he's done anything but lose nonstop if he's playing this way constantly, and since he's not losing nonstop (being a break even player), this is not his 'strategy'.
Dang, he probably just lost to a dude who was doing this, got frustrated, and decided to play that way for awhile (similar to a tilting player deciding to 'call every raise' because his opponents are doing it and winning). Given his downswing, he probably was tilting and thoughtlessly decided to try it out for a bit (and since it failed, he'll probably try something else).
