Ragged aces

Ragged aces - that is, hands consisting of an ace with a card less than a ten - are dangerous to play. You should never play them in 9max. I don't have to worry about that, though, since I don't play 9max any more :-) You can play ragged aces in 6max, but should do so with caution. Last night, I received ace nine three times. I played it each time; I think I went 2 for 3. My night ended with another ragged ace - this time ace six - when I was short-stacked and shoved. My opponent had an eight and a card lower than an eight (I forget what the other card was). Unfortunately, he paired his eight on the flop, and the turn and river bricked out on me.
