Depends on type of table for sit and goes depending on posion and how many in tt is a good gambe to go all in pre flop but 9t suited is a excellent specualtion call to see the flop but I would not want to call big raise or raise re raise (come that tt is a good fold to raise and re raised) but it might be harder to fold depending on table and how things are at the time ToX

Hmm, interesting question here, i think i would choose 9 t suited in the end, of a red color, diamonds or hearts(just a observation of mine over the tousands of hands i played lol) A pair it's a very strong hand preflop but pocket tens it's also a very marginal hand by any means, so if you don't get the set on the flop, and there are one or even two overcards, what seemed to be a very good hand preflop suddenly becomes a weak hand On the other hand a suited hand always gives you a flush possibility and also a very good straight chance, so yes it's a very nice hand to start with, even though i think i would prefer J 10 better than 9 10, but it's just me Good luck to all mobsters!

Posted by shokaku: A pair of tens is the better hand, but i guess T9s is easier to play. Such middlelish pairs can bring you in trouble, while with T9 it is hit or miss.
I am with shokaku. I am by far not experienced enough to play these middle pair correct I guess. Really don´t know what to do when I don´t hit and overcards come up. I do my c-bet, if I was the agressor, but what to do on turn when someone calls me ? If I check, he bets and then...?

migo if your playing the micros and someone calls, normally that means they wont give up their hand even if you keep betting, your best off to just check it down unless you manage to hit a 10, then go to value town
