I knew what you were impying, but shouldn't you try and sneak in a raise somewhere?

There are problems with calling the flop, but there are also problems with raising.

Calling the flop and turn and raising the river seems like an interesting play here. Since the caller will oftentimes be drawing dead to what we hold, we encourage him to call all the way. Since he won't have [censored] on the river and wont overcall with nothing, we pop it there and hope that the flop bettor pays off with TT or whatever. If he has AA he will be less likely to 3-bet us as well.
