I'd take that race all day in a freeroll and if you look at the leaderboard in most these regular tounaments the guys that are always on top are the ones risking it on their small pairs. hope this helps!
i see people push w/ them all the time, and either steal the blinds or get called by bigger pocket pairs, so i don't see how that's good. it's a coin flip against 2 over cards, but a lot worse odds against a bigger pp. doesn't make any sense 2 risk a bunch of chips 4 a small pot, when the only hand that's gonna call is gonna be a coin flip at best.
