I believe this concept applies when you cannot protect your hand on the flop because of the pot size and, well, in limit you can only put out a small bet on the flop. You wait for a safe turn and charge a big bet, which with the pot size, makes it incorrect for people to call with certain hands whereas they would be correct to call if you bet the flop, inflated the pot, and bet the turn again.

Its possible that what you're talking about is different and applies to NL. I think you should give a specific example of this play in action.
