You can fold that hand easily if you miss the flop and lose only two bets.

I disagree with Doyle's line on this hand because the hand isn't strong enough to want to invite action, yet too good to fold. The hand rates to play much better heads up in position then it will 3 or 4 handed, even if the blinds call with ugly hands.

The hand is rough on the low side and weak on the high side. It's a hand, that unless you are really good at playing post flop, will cause you lots of headaches after the flop if you have a bet and a call in front of you and flop a Jack and a low draw, or something to that effect.
