5cd - Checkraising when headsup

Is there any reason to check-raise as a bluff in 5 card draw when its headsup? If opponent is going to fold for one bet, wouldn't they just as easily fold to an initial bet? Are there meta-game considerations here?

Well, you win an extra bet. And if you ever intend to check-raise with a legitimate hand, there are meta-game considerations.

You win an extra bet only if they're bluffing too. So I suppose there are times. Thank you.
