However we are talking MINOR EDGES and to overcome the variance of such playing will take 100,000's of hands due to the large pots and infrequency of this time of event.

Infrequency of the event is totally insignificant here. All profit in poker is from pushing an equity edge (whether it be from cards/skill/fold equity or whatever). All profit comes with variance.

This is just another hand, another unique situation that you'll never see again. The ability to recognize a +ev situation and take advantage is what this is all about.

This question may represent a situation that is technically never going to happen. But it does a great job in demonstrating that a lot of posters here are unaware that not having the "best hand" going into a flop is not the necessity they think it is... All you need is an edge.
