I totally agree with this, and I use this line sometimes. However, I think that unless one or both villians know that you are capable of taking this line, they are inlined to believe you have crap here since the standard play with an overpair is to bet out on this flop. So basically in order for you to pull off this move successfully, you opponents have to be aware and they probably have to have some history of playing with you to know you are capable of playing an overpair this way.
