fooooold, these unusual bets, a large percentage of the time, mean you are beat. and yes bet preflop, you are in position, so even if they call, you can probably take it away with another bet on the flop.

If I'm playing this hand, I'm raising as with just about every hand I play. I'm definetly raising this on the button. It's a weird line but I might be able to find a fold...might depend on the player. Some players will show up with Q9 or Q7 here I think.

Hard not to go broke there. You'd see so much other trash in this spot as well as lower 2 pair hands (people can't lay down 2 pair at the 6.50's, like ever.

I don't fold that without a very strong read, which is pretty much never going to happen. If you don't limp off the button, you can get it in on the flop while your hand is good.
