Exactly.
It's a mistake in the classic sense where the opponent wouldn't have done it if he knew the hero's hand.
Yet, once he's done it, he's getting better odds to call the push and try to hit his draw than if he was facing a straight overbet.

Arkana, I know that the metagame considerations you're talking about drove the decision-making, but is it fair to leave them aside for the purpose of discussion?
