Whats your plan here? This is why I never play ace small especially out of postion.

Do you lead here? Do you go for a check-raise? Whats the proper play with this modest hand?

I hate leading out because I start bulding a pot and gain no information. I hate check raising here because no one will lay down any ace and A 9 is just not that strong..

Just not sure. Suggestions appreciated...
