Question about starting hand selection... does anyone else here consider hands with three high cards (A-T) and one bad low card (678, i.e. not wheel cards) playable from LP if the hand is suited to the ace?
I find myself playing these hands sometimes and have been trying to decide whether this is a leak.
Generally speaking I play these hands with the expectation that if I get a flop with two high cards and a low card, the backdoor low may add equity against some high-only hands that would (in Omaha Hi only) be favored over my hand because of its dangler. But do I lose too much high-side equity by having a dangler?
