I think we can value raise to 45 and get called by dominated hands and stack them once it comes qxx and they hold kqs which people arent gonna throw away for 45 bucks usually. raising to 45 also allows us to fold if one of the bigger stack 100bb+ overshoves (assuming they are nitty).
raising to 45 just juicen the pots and asks all of these loose passives to call
therefore even if an a or q hits, we might not be in good condition
even though we are pot commited 100% for sure
as for shoving, these are really bad players, they might even call shove with dominated hands like kq, kj, Ax, sometimes low pp, mid pp, and of course 10+
the thing with all this is, it's ultra high variance
i went along and decided to play for lower variance and just wait for these spots with aa,kk,qq, etc.
probably a -ev in the long term
