    My logic is that if we call IP, and facing heat on these boards when we spike them, we're likely up against a stronger range (their EP range). By contrast if we call in the BB (or less often in the SB), we're keeping in a ton of dominate hands (high LP stealers will have all K2-K9 stuff, Q2-Q9 etc etc).

    Also 3b IP with hands like QT, KT, might get folds of dominated hands like QJ/KQ etc.

    These also block v 4bet range.
