Just played another game against Sidonio, 1800+. He played a Caro-Kann against me, so I played my trap against him, and it didn't really go all the way according to the book. I was wondering why. Then I saw that this was the 13th game I was playing against Sidionio. After the game was over, I saw that he was a fanatic Caro-Kann player, and I saw that I slaughtered him three times with my Caro-Kann trap.
For the connoisseur, here are the games:

https://lichess.org/ZkrXST2r#23

So after biting the dust three times against the same opening trap, he got the hang of it, and didn't fall for it anymore.

Still he came out of the opening with a lousy position, and I managed to take him down in 16 moves: https://lichess.org/lSNNhmba#35

All is well that ends well.
