Default Re: Simple Question

No ulterior motive - this is just one of those hands that comes up a few times.

Where's the long term money coming from with this hand, against an unknown opponent? Is it picking up the flop pot (small but frequent)? Being ready to get all in on the flop (rare but large amounts of money involved), when you could easily be dominated by raising hands? Building a pot for the turn/river(fairly common, but how does a larger pot and the flop action affect profitability when we hit)? Or some combination? How much is each of these lines worth, and how are they best achieved?

I feel like there should be a clear line that maximizes EV against an average, unknown opponent with common stack sizes.
