He figures to have 6 outs at most, and if he is very aggro it's worth it to give him a shot at catching up if we can get him to spew 60bbs on the turn. He is never 3 betting the flop with a better hand with the intention of folding to a shove when 45% of his stack goes in. That's pretty ridiculous.
