      He paid for that education, that’s for sure. Sitting with crushers for so long and punt after punt. He still isn’t great but he is pretty good. Wouldn’t want to play him for stacks because he will put you in the blender. You have to be willing to call light against him and know it could be real swingy

    Total punt, why do that when your beating the guy with value bets and letting him bluff. Maybe if the hand is not four bet and you can over bet river it works often enough, even then seems unnecessary.
