Re: Raise or fold theory
The problem with calling with it is that calling encourages the pot to be multiways and A9o doesn't play well multi-way because it's hard for it to make a very strong hand..often you'll end up with a pair, which is often not enough in multi-way pot and you'll lose some money with it, whereas if you make a pair/no draw with a hand like 67s, you probably won't much if any money.
Also, we fold it from early position because its not likely we have the best hand, but if it's folded to us in late position, like the cutoff or the button, chances are very high that it's the best hand remain and we raise it to take the pot...hence, raise or fold.
