No info on villain.

Pre: A9s is usually a fold against a 3bet, but I am in position and the odds are excellent.

Flop: Pot odds: 25%. Equity of nut FD: 19.2%. I think I can just call. Being in position, I can realize some of my implied equity even better here.
Folding is not an option.
When I raise, I turn my hand into a semi bluff. If villain jams, my odds are not good enough to call. But I have additional fold equity which might make a raise +EV? Still I think a call is better, do you agree?

Turn: Pot odds: 21%. Equity: 19.6%. Similar to flop.

On flop you have more equity with 2 cards to come. Otherwise you should fold based on the equity that you have based on your analyse. Turn is a fold for sure with 1 card to come. You doesn't get the right prize to make a call profitable.

I was giving myself some implied odds, especially because I have position.
