See it a lot at low stakes.

Some peeps use it to see draws cheaply, others see you meekly flat two minbets and assume - often correctly - weakness so feel they can bomb rivers, lots like to minbet middle pair and assume it must be good if you havent raised them.

But Ive got notes on at least 2 players in my games where this = the nuts. Theyll min bet bluffs, middle pairs, weak draws then go big if they river summat. They stay small or check if they brick. 

They tend not to fold to raises either which can be annoying as if they then min lead the turn after minbet/calling the flop you feel induced if you raise them, exploited if you fold and weak if you flat. the standard advice is to ignore the action and treat it as a check.

Its quite a provocative avtion actually,  innit.

yeah, seen this quite a bit. Teddy's advice is goos - treat as a check.

another interesting play that seems to have become standard is the min 3bet, whether in position or out of position. wierd.
