it still builds the pot enough to get the money all in by the river - it just lets me have more control of the action because it caps the amount people can raise on the flop + turn.
+ it encourages peopel to defend blinds (eg. playing trash against me OOP) which is massivley +EV
people find themselves playing 100bb pots with K6 top pair
