i would think that most times you would raise A9s on the button in a multi-limped pot. you arent likely to blow any of the limpers out, and you start building a pot for the flush draw early.

usually, i will raise these to 3-4X. not much, just a "sweetener." again, balance it out with other stuff, too, though. things i want to see multi-way will get smaller pfr's. things i dont want to, get bigger ones. if there are 3 limpers, i will raise AXs to 3-4X. if i have AKo, i raise it to 6-8X.

players this low dont recognize the difference, imo, as long as you are doing both consistently....and your opening raises are only 4X with AKo oop.
