How to Play Ten-Nine Suited In Cash Games - Upswing Poker
-
The first key strategic note is that Ten-Nine Suited is an amazing hand with which to 3-bet. Doing so balances out the strong hands in your 3-bet range (like Pocket Aces and Ace-King). The only time I suggest calling with Ten-Nine suited is when you’re in the Big Blind or on the Button in certain scenarios. Otherwise, it’s gonna be a 3-bet or a fold.
-
If you’ve been reading these types of articles from me, you know that I’ve been harping on backdoor draws in all of them. That’s because you can’t rely only on the “real” draws to balance out the value hands. You simply won’t have enough of them!

html - Valid to use <a> (anchor tag) without href attribute? (buttons) - Stack Overflow
The real question is whether the <a> element alone is an appropriate representation of a <button>. On a semantic level, there is a distinct difference between a link and a button.
A button is something that when clicked causes an action to occur.

If you're concerned about the semantics and accessibility of using an <a> element (or <span>, or <div>) as a button, you should add the following attributes:
