I raise them both quite often
A9o I raise 78% and I am .30 BB/hand (169 times)
QJo I raise 100%(damn) and I am .16 BB/hand (144 times)

This is over a 200K sample from 10/20 and up. My UTG Stats are 20/20. My overall stats are 32/23.

i think raising a9 utg sucks bc ppl are so willing to 3bet with ak-at.

still i did it for like 500k hands. i wont be around my big databases so i cant tell you how much ive lost with it.

I can see why people prefer QJo rather than A9o in games where you either get 3-bet or coldcalled a lot.

I fold both.

I know there's a better hand coming up any second now.

its so marginal why not just fold them. I agree with MM the increased tight image buys more fold equity.
