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

Almost always 99 win, but AT can also win, here a lot depends on luck, the alignment of the players, a multi-pot or two opponents entered the bank.

give me the pair of nines every time. A10 is simply Ace high unimproved.

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)

99

I choose 99, A10 even if it is the same color, I do not trust that pair.

I like 99 better. This is because it is often difficult for AT to judge whether or not it will win even if A appears on the flop.
