Oooh be careful!! Because then you've got a voltage doubler and (depending on capacitor value) HT voltage could actually INCREASE!
Would be OK under normal conditions, but if the output valve stopped passing current (dodgy cathode valveholder pin, for example), the load would reduce and it could be bye-bye HT electrolytics!
