how does the board change his combos?

UTG C-BETS 7 into 10, you have to be correct 41% of the time to make the call in a vacuum, no turn, no river cards.
Imagine we have pocket 8s. Should we float?
To calculate the equity of our hand we need to consider at 4 scenarios:
You are ahead and he sucks out
You are ahead and we win
You are behind and suck out
You are behind and lose
Scenario 1 and 2:
88 vs 33-66, KJS+, QJs, JTs, T9s, 98s, KQo (44% of his cbetting range)
EV$ for hero $8.46
EV$ for villain $2.10
EV of when we are ahead +$6.36
Scenario 3 and 4:
88vs SETS, TOP PAIR, Second pair (56% of cbetting range)
EV$ for hero $1.07
EV$ for villain $12.25
EV when behind -$11.18
Total EV = -11.18+6.36 = -4.82
No you cannot float with 88!
LESSON: DO NOT FLOAT/PLAY BACK against STRONG RANGES Â
