If the person you're in hand with has position on you, and is very aggressive, then sometimes it makes sense to spike them with a rag hand. I don't know if I would do it with 96suited for 5xBB, but I might do it with 89suited for 3xBB. Your "poor" position is actually an advantage if the person with position on you is over aggressive. That's because you can slow play them. I called a 3xBB with 67 suited last night and took 40xBB from a guy when 6 6 9 flopped.

If a 5xBB raise comes from a person with a huge stack and I hold a small pocket pair, I will also call for the implied odds. I might even raise all in if the person is known to lay down.

Playing rags is specific to the opponent. When you play rags for raises, you better be able to tell yourself why you're doing it. It can't be because you hope to "hit a lucky flop". It has to have a purpose. That purpose could be to mold your image, or to steal from a person who only raises broadways and you're hoping a rag flop hits.

You should learn the different reasons to play with rags before you start messing around with them. It's also safe to say your reads have to be superior when you play with fire.
