UTG is passive and semi loose. Much more passive than loose.

CO is unknown

Easily bet for value, backdoorflush draws should rarely if ever scare you.

Yeah, that's actually a pretty good river card for you. I think the odds that he was chasing a backdoor-flush are slim enough to bet-arooney.

I wouldn't fear the backdoor flush draw. I'd definitely bet and hope he doesn't have AT.

Am I the only one who likes a PF raise here?

Yes, this is an easy value bet. You obviously won't always win the pot when they call - sometimes one of them will show AT or you'll split with another A9, but betting here has a lot of value. Expect to be called by any A, any J, pocket pairs, and busted draws that randomly paired the river.

I am not on your team...I want more callers.

No, I wouldn't mind a PF raise with A9s. I personally would not do it, but it's close. ATs/A9s is the breaking point for me (unless it's LP), as well what position I would raise from with one caller - MP1/MP2 being right on the border. Those two things combined make it a call for me.

I'm joining up with you, buddy. Where's the party? Oh dude, this is Absolute 1/2, the tightest game on the planet. I think a raise here is pretty important.
