Ace Ten to Ace Eight, a difference of outs?

Poker Decadence Conference, a site we’re linking to already, posted a nice insight into the difference between A8 and AT on their blog today. I understand what they’re trying to say when they mean you possibly have more outs with the 3-gap straight draw, but that isn’t too relevant when the board is A765, is it?

I realise that might not help in that many cases, and that KK will probably pay you off way better when the board is KQJ, but isn’t that a long shot to justify an early-position raise with AT?

Read the source right here, and share your toughts, will ya?
