Default fold x2, but how\'d I play the rest?

live 25/50
Main villian in both hands limps a lot PF. Haven't seen her bluff a lot post flop but is capable. She's tricky and chases a lot esp on the flop.

Loose table at moment with people limping all kinds of junk.

Hand #1
4 limpers, I raise A9o from the button, BB calls, limpers call.

6 to the flop: 973r
BB bets, 1 fold, 1 call, villian calls, loose beginner calls, I just call planning to raise the turn.

5 the the Turn: K
BB checks, EP checks, Villian bets, beginner folds, I raise, BB & EP fold, Villian 3-bets, I fold.


Hand #2
EP limps, Villian raises, loose beginner cold call, I 3-bet JJ. Blinds fold. All Call.

4 to the Flop: 7d6d3
Checked to me, I bet, All call.

Turn: Kh
Checked to me, I bet, EP folds, Villian raises, beginner folds, I fold.

2nd hand i fold sometimes and call down sometimes, especially given that you say she's tricky and decent. if you keep betfolding she's going to keep raising.

1st hand can be a fold pf imo

I feel like I come from a totally different preflop planet than Medium Stakes these days. People are limping JJ and raising A9o after 4 limpers? Calling raises with ATo? What's going on in limit holdem!?

These clowns were limping J6, Q9, T8, and so I raised PF because I thought I was most likely dominating rather than being dominated. Would you advise calling on the button with A9o or just mucking?

Just muck. That hand sucks in a multiway pot. Do you think you'll get excessive action from worse aces? Are the clowns who limp in with A4 also limping in with AJ? If so, you've got a RIO situation as well.

Anyway, I'd much rather have T8o in position here than A9.

Muck the first hand preflop. And avoid getting in that spot to begin with. I hate raising. As played postflop, it's ok, I mean what else could you do?

Hand 2 is a pretty standard muck in all games I play in.

Barf. Call for your 5 outer. Isn't there like 12 BB in the pot(mostly thanks to your awful pf raise)?

Really, are you attempting a level with this hand?

I think limping in #1 is fine but raising it is horrible. One of a few spots where I'd say call > fold > raise.
