56o in the BB. I call a raise.

I don't like the call. Even if you were the SB and there wasn't a raise, this is not a profitable call to make until you have at least 5 limpers. Pretty easy fold.

As for T9o vs 65o... that's due to domination by AT, A9 and so forth. In the same sense, if you know your opponent has a hand like AK/AQ, you would be much better off playing JTs than KQ, KJ or QJ.

Yeah you're also much more vulnerable to straights when you hit 2 pair. Interestingly, 56o also has more equity than KQo given my assumptions. Given tighter players 56o dips only marginally, KQo sinks further.
