What's the intention/benefit behind checking or betting in the dark?
I see it a lot on PAD and HSP but unsure as to what it's trying to convey.
Thx

It is kind of 'reversing' position, if I am first to act after the flop and I declare 'check in the dark' the person who has position on me does not know if the flop helped me or not by my action. Of course the downside of it is that you may give a free card.
From my very limited experience check in the dark very often means low-mid PP
