My $0.02.

Edit:
E.g. T7 on a K986 board == ship it.
it's funny you should say that. today i was reading about a hand where hero had T7 and the board came J98, 3 and hero folded his hand on the turn.

but suited gappers are nice hands. 97s and 86s are the nuts.
52s is also sweet. flop of 5o4s3s allin on flop against a set and hitting the draw. ship that.
