King's court/Bishop Golden Deck

I found a new combo that I haven't run across before today, while playing online.  It goes something like this:

Thin down with any trasher until your deck consists of 2 King's Courts, 1 bishop, 1 terminal silver, and any other card. Once you have these 5 cards, play King, King, terminal silver, Bishop.  This will net you $9, and trash the 5th card.  You then buy a Province, and repeat.  You will get 7 points per turn and, with decent trashing, empty the Provinces by turn 17-18 with ~60 points.  If Provinces are being contested, you can buy golds instead and still get 6 points per turn. 

Obviously, a discard attack will wreck this strategy.  You can do the same thing with Colonies if there is a terminal gold (like treasurer) in the kingdom.

The reason this isn't mentioned is that you can do the same thing without King's Court, just by Bishop/Gold/Gold/Silver/Province. It'll give 2 fewer VP per turn, but it's easier to set up.

Pretty cool strategy EricWinkler but on most boards with King's Court there are other strategies that score more than 7 points per turn.
