lol i hate both of them, but well 99 is a couple so now just say 99. although when i think about it and see how often people with only high cards win. It's not that easy at all, but I think I'll stick with the couple anyway
Well ... I like to play those two hands ... but in fact I prefer 99 ... they say 99 never fail ... hahahahaha .. and I don't know if it will be cabal ... but I always do good with the 99
I like a pair to start. Not the best of pairs, but it is still a pair. After the flop as long as A 10 doesn't pair the chances look better and better. I would seldom push all-in with nines, but I might call a small raise dependent on the cards that flop. Sometimes playing odd pairs like these can be really good traps for those playing ace high. There is nothing like flopping a set when you know the person has paired one of their precious aces.
Statistically, 99 is ahead of A10, so it should win more often, but there are other factors to consider...stack size, position and how many players left (tournament)
