Default Re: $114: Overcall with A9?

I never understood the advantages of sng'ing in a situation like this. He'll probably call the flop if he is ahead of us and fold if he's behind, so specifically we'll be losing on hands when he would've called preflop but can now get away on the flop (like missed KQ). I guess he could conceivably have something like 44 and flop KQJ or something, but the sng seems to benefit him (and hurt us) more than it helps us. Please let me know if I'm missing something.
