I tell you what, I'll take A9s and you can A2s every hand we play. We'll see who wins the most.

The higher the 'X' the better the Suited Aces are.
The higher the X goes doesnt necessarly make the suited aces better. With A9 the only thing you SHOULD be looking for is the flush draw (and of course the two pair, trips) you dont want to just pair up the ace with no flush draw as more times than not your going to find yourself in a whole heap of crap.
At least with the very low suited aces there is something else to look for on the flop - a straight draw, although as Hypermegachi pointed out above, your not going to complete that straight a hell of alot times. I suppose if you like having a pair of aces with crap kicker than A9 is good. But I dont so I prefer to have the option of getting a straight (however small that probability is), which is why I prefer A-2,3,4,5. I guess its just a matter of preferences.
