I understand traditional thinking is 'its the kinda hand you wanna see a flop with' and multiway etc etc. Part of the strength of playing SCs is their board coverage in raised pots vs somewhat narrow or even polarized ranges, and depending on our initiative ip or oop.
Can obv gin a flop, but can also use the board covg or lack thereof to bluff and semibluff effectively. I think that strength is severely diminished in these multiway limped pots where we find ourselves dominated and blocked a lot, and a hand like 98 runs into this often, and range assessment is pretty nil
But w/e, dont think this is a big ev event in either direction for 1bb, but def doesnt feel like an edge we can consistently, and profitably exploit.
