A9 offsuit (No hand content)
Do you ever play A9o? Today I found myself sitting on the button with A9o and 6 people limp to me. I'm getting pretty good odds on my money since I know the blinds are almost always going to call/check in the .25/.50. I know SSHE says not to play A9o, but I look again to make sure and yep...no A9o on the preflop table. So yea, I fold. Right after I typed that last period I got A9o again in mp and folded it. A9 isn't very good but notice that SSHE says to call with ATo in all positions if it hasn't been raised yet. I guess I'm just making this thread to make sure I'm doing the right thing when I autofold A9o.
Thoughts?

A9 is a shoe in. Lacking connectedness it loses something multiway, so you need to hit the flop hard. But a lot of times your 9 will outkick an "any ace will do" player. -D

Actually, even if you were a male, desperate, totally gay and also blind, you would probably change your mind when you met me. But it was a great quote. -D

It isn't terrible to limp it after a lot of limpers in the best possible position. It is also a good raising hand when you are the first one in starting somewhere around MP3/CO or when it's folded to you in the small blind.

Re: A9 offsuit (No hand content)
Actually, SSHE does say to play A9o on the button, it's just not on the chart.
Page 74, last paragraph: "Possible exceptions might be A9, T9, and 98 on the button for one bet only. But even here, at best, these hands are only marginally profitable."
