It depends on how many players are at the table. For example, when comparing a hand on the button for a six-max table vs. a nine-max table, the hand on the six-max table may play better, or worse, than the nine-max table.
Therefore, you may despise a hand on a nine-max table but would like it on a six-max table, and vice-versa.
Anyone who wants to play with junk because they see potential in it is not playing poker, they are playing bingo. Bingo is also a game, and it has a right to exist
