This poster is a very fine poker player and he has influence. So - I'm going to jump on this very bad advice.
I don't mean to be real rude to the kid, he looks like he's smarter than I am by a long shot - but not about this - not without a lot of caveats.

Then let's talk about when to play (A2)T. (You can answer his questions in the
other thread he started where he asked, since only you and about three other people around here are competant to do so. Then I'll go read that and maybe I'll be a gifted player someday.)
I, personally, complete with (A2)T in this situation where everyone has folded to me:
(A2)T 9 K A J 8 Q T
I'm completing to make it clear to the 9 I have two wheel cards. If he calls, I have an idea what he has, because he isn't calling with (J7)9. If he raises, he's a LAG or has two wheels of his own.
Please tell me why I am wrong/right, how you do it, and so forth.
