Lol ridiculous. This isnt online poker you don't need board coverage at 1/3 for the simple fact that your live player pool isn't going to remember that one time you showed down 65s after opening UTG. And 4bet bluffing is not a thing at 1/3. Much rather have blockers and equity versus KK-JJ when I 4bet. There are very few villains at 1/3 that polarized 4betting ranges are effective against. Even if there were you need stack depths to be quite high and that rarely happens.
Example: 300 eff versus young tag reg. You open UTG to 15 with 65s. 2 fish call. Tag reg in sb makes it 90. You 4bet all in. He calls with his entire range because he's never 3betting an utg opener unless he has good equity versus QQ+ and AK. Nice job!
You'd have to be like 1500 eff at 1/3 to be 4bet bluffing a polarized range. So almost never.
