I generally don't bother with a pair of 10s, regardless of opponents' upcards, in stud/8 unless the game is shorthanded (4-5 players or less), in which case the game is played more like stud high and the hand might become playable if the boards and the action (i.e., no A and K raising and re-raising into you before you act) dictate. In a full game, 10s are far too marginal a high hand to play unless you have 3 of them. Wait for a better opportunity.
