33 party - oesd on flop

For those who think completing the SB is okay:

What DON'T you complete with and how are those hands so different than T9o?

I wouldn't complete with 67o, probably not 78o... basically Sklansky Group 7 and better. T9o is not devoid of high card value, and most of the value of this hand is flopping 2nd pair and getting paid off on the flop by an obvious draw or lower PP. You won't win a big pot, but you can win a small one more often than you lose a big one. With your SB discount, I think a decent player can make the odds work out.

FWIW I forgot to consider the difference between 800 and 1000 chip structure so it's closer, but I still complete.

FWIW I play it exactly the same.

Why lead the flop?

I like it. You're getting 5 to 1 preflop, so easy call.

Leading the flop is correct but I would bet less than the pot (probably 1/2 the pot so that the pot isn't too big on turn if you miss your draw on the turn).
