In this situation 7 times out of 10 youll have the better hand going to the flop, and im willing to take those odds. If you get drawn out on, thats just poker.

you will win 6,5 times VS any random hand, and about 4,5 times against any lower pocket pair.

but for me those odds are for 50$ freeroll tourneys, i would never try my luck against tight player on big tourneys with whole stack preflop with a draw. but that's only my opinion, and i'm relativelly new in hold'em
