Last night I was kinda bored and finally opened sklansky's new no limit book. He recommends often checking the flop (both with made and unmade hands) out of position after raising preflop. It actually makes a good deal of sense. I certainly don't want to give up the true agression in my game, but it would make sense to slow down in these spots a lot, both in an out of position on the flop. Players that call too much here are easy to throw around on 4th street with a large second barrell, but ones that often raise the flop are really a bitch to play against. They irritate me to no end.
I've been doing this, and it's definitely good. I'm never checking middle or bottom set though. Mostly TPGK for made hands because I want to control pot size and induce bluffs since their value is so marginal. If you do it once in a while, and pick off a double or triple barrel bluff, your opponents will definitely respect you a lot more and you can get free cards with missed overs when you don't decide to cbet.
