Default Weak tight checking down top pair types?

I have noticed that Stars and now even Pokerroom has these type of players. Is there a point of doing this? Isn't this negative EV? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

I've noticed this at OnGame and i'm loving it. These types of players are just broadcasting their hands.

Although, i did have a player like this stack me last night. He check/called all 3 streets with a flopped full house. (I turned the nut flush so i wasn't folding.) Usually the donks minraise the turn.

Well I do this to guys I have position on who are aggy. It's easier to let them push than to try and pull them in. Maybe he had reads on you.

I think checking a fullhosue and limp calling or flat calling with a hand like kk and then playing very passivly after the flop are two differnt things.
I think you will find most of the idiots that play big pp passivly are the ones that will tell you "well I hate big pp I always lose with them" They are just too retarded to know they have no idea how to play poker.
