I see this statement a lot, and it always puzzles me. You get them to fold AND pay off your hands? How can it work both ways? Is there some super-duper secret that makes them call when you have a hand?
Given that I have only tried this for a session I cannot comment in too much detail but last night I checked on the flop and c/raised and in instances even checked the turn and c/raised with air when flop raise was called. They folded every time.

Then two hands happened against two regulars who chatted about me being a maniac. One hand I had A9o and raised it in the CO and got called by the button. Flop was A94. I checked - button bets - I reraised - opp called. Checked turn when brick fell - button bet - I pushed - opp called. He tried to trap me with AKs.

The next hand I get 92s in the SB and raise it up - BB called. Flop comes A92. I check - BB bets. Turn is a 9. I bet small - he raises - I push. Get called by K9s and take down a big pot.

I think that my image was of a complete maniac who loves to c/raise flops too often and so I got paid off on my good hands. However, i only c/raised flops when bettor only seemed to try to take down the pot in position.
