I think we would all agree that the most dangerous thing is double-ended stairs

The most dangerous thing about such a flop is one of your opponents holding a nine and a ten. This would mean they flopped the nuts.

Obviously, on a 6-7-8 flop, the opponent can already have a made straight or a very strong draw with tons of outs.

Actually, 9 and 10 are very playful, as are 4 and 5; this generally creates a cooler.

The 6-7-8 offsuit flop is dangerous because it connects with many possible hands, generating straights, two pairs, and sets. This makes even strong hands like high pair vulnerable, as the board offers multiple combinations that can easily beat a seemingly dominant hand.
