The implied odds on this undertaking are horrible....

Are you suggesting that if you limped in on the button with T9, you would WANT your opponent to raise Ax?

Your complaints sound to me like a problem with your handling of this hand postflop, not with raising preflop. I don't feel intuitively that the future bets are so large as to overwhelm your preflop advantage, which appears to be substantial. I'm open to being proven wrong.

my 2 cents.

against an open button limp i am completing A2o and sometimes raising these hands but rarely anymore since it represents ace high which is exactly what you dont want to reprsent. id rather raise J8o then A2o in these spots. i dont see why people are folding A2o in the SB against a button limp. thats a huge hand with alot of equity.

Because I've been spraying in the blinds recently somehow and am trying to correct it. I suspect this may be one of the causes. It's also possible I am making things up in my mind.

I play them all and would only raise low/mid unsuited aces if I felt the BB folds often, which is very rare at 10/20.

I don't fold any A in the SB if I can just complete.

You know, I answered this question one way, then watched my own play today.

I played exactly as you said... I never folded an Ace in the SB for 1/4 of a BB. So please change my answer; I apparently don't know my own play.

call or raise depending on how button sb... if they will never fold for one bet, call.. sometimes raise.

if this is realy giving you problems (yikes?), you could just move up in stakes and mostly eliminate this problem.
