The lower the SPR, the more likely it is they will do exactly that. 3-betting lowers the SPR.
Why are you against that?

So maximizing EV has to do with how the Villain reacts to certain lines from us. Even aggro V's are going to shut down with AT on a board like this if we have 3! pre and called a flop bet.
If he called a 3-bet and a flop bet, and we only started 100BB's deep....then he's committed. He can't possibly be getting less than 2 to 1 on the rest of his stack. That's what low SPR's do.....they force villains to commit with bad hands.

So playing that way won't likely get his whole stack.
Yeah it will. We can get him to commit with one bet post-flop! dude....seriously....this is an lol-easy bread and butter situation at LLSNL. You 3-bet an EP raiser with a premium hand in position and play for stacks. If you aren't getting max value most of the time in this spot.....I really don't know what to tell you.

Stop being so rigid in all of your analysis. What you advocate isn't always the only way/optimal way to play.
In this case it is though. But as I've said, I'm willing to play along and be open minded. Convince me.
You are advocating a line that A) Let's villain get to showdown with his strongest range possible. And B) Gets less than all the money in the middle.
^Do I have any of that wrong? If not, then I am not sorry for RIGIDLY adhering to the opinion that your line will not yield max EV.
I'm still waiting for you to tell me how Max EV means "less than all of it"
