Default Re: can anyone fold this low end straight?

[ QUOTE ]
Any douche that opens with top two on an draw-heavy board for a buck will probably do something like min-raise you. That would have in all likelihood knocked out that straight draw. Easy call, make your hand on the turn, pow.

I'm a strong proponent of opening with these sorts of hands, even OOP multiway.

I submit this analysis as being perhaps the most results-oriented ever made.

Well as I see it the drawbacks of opening here is that

A) i don't have a draw to the nuts
B) theres an ace on the board and I have two opponents, its likely someone calls
C) not likely to get a free river since I'm out of position if I brick the turn

Is opening here still the more profitable play long run? I think it would require some fimbulwinter style math but my gut tells me its break even at best. I could very well be wrong though.
