Don't know about "should" be opened, but I don't doubt it "can" be opened profitably.
Having said that, how much are we actually losing ev-wise if we fold A
9
8
7
or Q
T
9
6
?
All I'm saying is I'd much rather look to widen my range IP than OOP.
If you want to squeeze out another few percentage, just carefully include more two gappers. There are tons of hands you can and all you need is another 3k. keeping in line with the above example, stuff like A
9
7
5
and Q
T
8
5
But that might shoot you more towards 20% which gets more and more suicidal.
But again, I wouldn't. I'd much rather look to widen my button and CO range and think about how to play those hands IP.
Trying to play OOP is painful and marginal.
