Default Re: Playing A2-A9 Suited -- especially early position

[ QUOTE ]
A2-A9 suited belongs in the muck. When I first started playing this was one of the biggest -EV things in my game. Even when you hit the A you are almost always behind.

Being somewhat TAGish, I've found suited aces to be great for opening my raising raise preflop. I wouldn't raise with the low ones unless I was in EP. It's been important for me to play these as drawing hands, primarily. If I happen to have the best ace and betting has been light, that's great, but I'm not looking to hit top pair, crap kicker.
