Default BSB play mid stages of a 20/180

Middle of a 20/180 on stars. Blinds are 150-300 w/ 25 antes.
Both villain's have seen the flop 18% and 14%, respectively.
Folds to button who limps, SB completes, Hero looks down at A7o.
Action???



Same question instead this time these 2 have seen our hero in the SB raise a 1 limper on 2 different occasions.
The raise was 5x the BB each time. MP limper folded on both occasions.


villain1 4155 chips (button)
villain2 4222 chips (small blind)
hero 6520 chips (big blind)


Any feedback or advice appreciated in advance.

1st question...check.
2nd question...did they see you raise then win without a showdown? Or have you raised limpers then showndown premium hand(s)?

Good point should have been more specific.

They saw a raise of 5x BB when hero was in the SB w/ only 1 limper from middle position. MP limper folded both times.

I think this makes me more inclined to check then.

I'd raise to 1200 here.
After this preflop action it's very likely you have the best hand and you have FE too.
You might get A9,A8 to muck.
The fact that you have payed restealers before doesn't matter very much imo - if they are observant they should be inclined to open-raise a hand. sure button can trap with a monster, but than he 3-bets and you can easily fold your A7.
