[Closed] Suited connectors / double gappers

Is there a big difference between playing suited connectors or double gappers? I assume suited connectors are slightly better but overall they both are good speculative hands, right? I just seem to play them both as equal hands.
What about hands like 96s, T7s, J8s? Obviously worse than the abovementioned, but one might still want to play them aggressively every once in a while, no?

Examples what u can hit on flop, except backdoor draws and flopped straights:
OESD=Black
Gutshot=Red

67:
34, 45, 58, 89, 9T

68:
45, 57, 79, 9T

69:
57, 78, 8T

And can we hit a pair as well, or only gutshots or OESD's, sir?

Yeah, but practically ANY hand has like same equity of hitting "pair".

except pockets.


chances are.. your pair of sevens or fives won't be any good anyway.

I´m from Spanish community and looking in google about double gappers I found this thread. Good answer.

Obviously in some steal situations we can play aggresively DG but they are worse than SC.

Cya!
