The cost to see community cards is much increased. Instead of paying 1 small bet to see the first three cards you must pay 2 SB. This probably means that suitedness/connectedness is much less valuable because you cannot 'flop' a monster draw. You may have to play in a somewhat stud-like fashion and fold '4th street' (2nd round) fairly often

unless the second community card is a disaster most starting hands are good to pay to see the third community card - you are normally getting huge pot and implied odds to see the last 2 cards so for example the big pairs are nearly always playing to the end if the board is paired and there are no higher community cards
