It's analogous to the Holdem play of raising in early position with a gapper or little pair. It increases your bluff equity with scare cards and makes it possible to get paid off when you make a big concealed hand.

Believe me, that's one of my favorite plays in holdem. I don't bet/3bet in those spots though. And if I start with 46s in holdem, not only do I not bet/3bet preflop, I don't bet/3bet the flop when I make a flush draw.

If you could see one each of your opponents' cards and you knew you were extra-live and they weren't, would that change your mind?

I'm asking because you can see some of their cards in this game, so it's different. But analogous.
