An example is they bet $5 into a $10 pot.
The pot is now $15 but they will have to call $5 less of any raise you make (since they already have a $5 stack in the pot).
If you raise to 2/3 pot ($10) a third player would have to call $10 to win $25 (25:10) but the original raiser only needs to call $5 to win $25 (5:1) which is profitable for almost any draw.
