Re: Crappy hands you think are ahead on the flop....
If you're going to fold when you get the top pair, why play the hand in the first place? Your best hope on this one is that no one else hits anything. I think you play this straight, making a bet and hoping for callers holding two unpaired high cards. People will figure you for approximately what you have (they won't suspect 82s unless you play this a lot, but they'll suspect a pair of tens or A8). But you can't be deceptive here, you won't fool anyone into thinking you started with a pair of 7's or T9. So play it straight and hope for the best. If that seems like a thin hope, fold it preflop next time.
