Default Re: Undervaluing small PPs?

I think this is a muck as a default play and only if table conditions are special (or maybe you've been running real goot) should you come in here.

There is no way that paying 2 bets at 5/10 or above is profitable as 2nd in.

Yes, if you cold-call at some tables, often that will encourage others to cold call. You figure the BB will come in with most hands too so you basically have set value. But as a default play, I want to be the 2nd cold-caller, not the first.

The only reason I would think that everyone commented the way they did was because the table was running large pots consistently. I think you need to expect a 10 big bet final pot in order to make this play profitable. Have most pots been running at $200+? More importantly, have EP raised pots been consistently getting to $200+?
