i'm fine with it, not a limit player, but with a big pot you stand to make some money on certain boards. its likely most of the others are holding high cards, so you just have to be able to laydown top pair, or 2nd pair post flop. 2 pair is a good flop but not ideal. i may have checked the turn but im a nl player so im guessing for limit. i do think though, or assume that many intermediate players over play suited connectors, just a theory.
They had a lot of outs but you got to see a large pot for fairly cheap with a good shot | He cold called the open raise in MP with suited connectors and several players left to act behind him -- this is terrible play in LHE.
He got to see the flop for the most money possible -- not cheaply.
He was fortunate that several players saw the flop but there is not way that this could be known when he made the initial cold call.
This hand is just a spewing of money. The only good play is to fold preflop in this position with these cards.
