All this supposes as said earlier that it won't get exploited. Sometimes it won't, but sometimes it will. I wouldnt put to much stock in having impetus with this play. It doesn't count for much when you have 4th pair OOP in a 6 way pot. Most of the time limping to set mine is better than raising to set mine.
Besides PP's, suited aces, what hands might we want to pot sweeten IP when we can expect to see the flop with 5+ opponents and we are deep?

Yep. I know a couple of whales who will open just about every hand for $25, but if someone raises $10 infront of them they will just call without a legit. 3! hand.
