I can very easily be drawing dead. How do you proceed?

I mentioned in another post that I hate this kind of hand.

In my current state of mind, I would be tempted just to dump it. It would not at all be surprising for someone to have KK or AK or A with a better kicker than you've got.

Yeah, I hate this one... I'm guessing the only hands that will call you are ones that have you beat. Your only hope would be that they have trips, you hit your kicker, but they don't. Yuck!

For $0.50, though, I might be willing to peel one off and go to the felt if I hit my boat.

Did I mention I hate these kinds of hands?

Monk.. your comments?

I would fold with this thought in mind: if a big pot is going to be played and I have them beat with a marginal hand, then all I need to do is wait for a better opportunity and I will get their stacks anyway.
