Re: The Preflop Raise
With ace-nine is that you often have to pay off one more bet than with 6-4. Bet flop, check turn, opponent value bets river... you have just enough hand to call with a loser. Or opponent check-raises flop, you take one more off, fold on turn. Doesn't really happen with 6-4.
It all depends on whether the steal value is enough to pay for the extra bets it can trap you for.
