How to play T9s
Playing it before the flop
Open from under the gun onward, in position. T9s only wins 54.1% against a random hand, near the bottom of the playable range, yet it is one of the most profitable hands to play, because it is either clearly good or clearly gone by the turn.
Facing a 3-bet
Call in position with stacks behind, fold out of it. Suited connectors need room to win a big pot when they hit, and a 3-bet pot at shallow depth simply does not have it. Depth is the whole question here, not the hand.
After the flop
T9s flops a pair, a draw or nothing, and the difference between winning and losing with it is how quickly you let go of the third. When it does connect it is well hidden, a straight from connected cards is the hardest hand at the table to see coming.
