Default Re: JTo otb in straddled hand

The raise by the BB does not affect things in any way. Hands like JTo you ae looking for volume,

Really? Not in any way? It seems to affect the value of implied odds postflop a bit. JTo is a hand you want to see the flop cheaply with. It's not a great multiway hand and thrives on implied odds if you can get in cheap. Unless you think a betting structure of 1-1-2-2 is the same as 2-1-2-2.

I guess with volume you're suggesting playing JTo in capped 7 way pots also?

You don't play a hand using hoping to flop a str8 as a reasonable reason to play it. That's hoping for a miracle.
