Probably A9 against 10J off.. but 10Js against A9s. Don't know if it makes sense mathematically tho..

A9 hands down, J,10 is my worst hand, at best I win 2% of the time them. So if you are against me in the hand and the flop KQ9, raise all in because I will not have stayed in the game with J,10 LOL

I would choose JT in a multiway pot or against big pairs, otherwise I would take AT.

TJ is way better, A9 despite having an A you have a low kicker, A9s improves a little bit, however TJ still being better.

i would take J-T over A-9 . especially if it is suited

at A-9 you can get into trouble and be outkicked

while J-T is easier to lay down in comparison and also has (nut) straight possibilities

I don't like A9, I throw it away. J10 max. if it's single.

J10 had been good to me for such a long time that I really loved playing it; but for some reason it has now burned me more often than not. A9 has never really been my friend, but A10 has burned me even more. Just on a bad streak lately with almost anything lol.

I prefer more 10J than A9, connectors are always good and if they are also suited then this is one of my favorite hands;)

Your option is also more promising for me. Although, as always in poker, our luck decides a lot.

TJ (especially is suited) all the way! Win much more often with that than I do with AA, especially in FreeRolls where noone respects your raises anyway!
Haha. I have tried slow playing premium hands in freerolls. Big mistake. Losing to hands like J4o is bad for the psyche.

Hi

10 J are better cards, and more if they are of the same color, I consider that they have a great chance of winning

I still prefer the A9 cause looking in my poker history, JT was never a good hand for me.

I prefer to defend these cards 10 J and A9 from the bingblind position, they are cards that are hidden from the opponent's reading.

being able to form a straight or two pair, in some cases being able to play even a check raise.

J 10 is my choice, and I prefer them to build the straight or flush nuts, rather than hitting a pair with them - dangerous kickers .. However they are my favourite hand all time especially suited

10J seems to play very well in many situations and would be preferred or A9 by many players. If suited the preference may more likely be the A9, depending how many players are still in the hand.

Both hands are for speculative play. Preferably in a good position. Taking that into account, I prefer A9. The probability is more favorable.
