Hi im not sure on the correct play for this hand:

3-handed game, button raises, sb folds, we call in bb with 2-6-8-x-x

2:1 and we pick up 2-6-7-8-9

1) Do we check-raise here and pat, and probably fold to any heat later on? or draw to 2-6-7, or 2-6-7-8?

2) same question as #1 except we pick up 2-3-6-8-9. Would we pat it or draw at 2-3-6-8

If the opener drew two instead of one, would we unequivocally pat both hands?

Would our decision change if the opener is UTG instead of the button?

thanks!

Assuming this is "infinitely deep"

1) call& draw at 2-6-7
2) call& draw at 2-3-6-8

if the opener drew two:
1) c&r - pat on
2) call& draw at 2-3-6-8

3 handed, BTN is UTG

1. would c/r and pat, fold to any aggression later on with a bad 9 vs a 1 draw.
2. imo no big difference, redrawing for a weakish 8 or keep a bad 9, given opponent is drawing one allot of our outs are already in play.

Relatively new to 2-7TD so maybe my thought process for point 2 is way off?

Pats, I lead second draw and see if they break.
If they call that, I pat again and check / call the end.
If raise my second draw lead, I think I muck.

Would love to hear if that is strange.

I'm just not that interested in drawing at an 8-6 by only breaking the 9, and I am not interested in drawing 2.

Would love to hear one of the experts chime in here. I could see an argument for all options in both scenarios. UTG vs BTN probably matters more than you think. UTG opens are likely to be much more smooth whereas the button could have a 9 or even a T in his hand in this spot (I know he shouldn't have the latter unless it's a semibluff but bad players do anyways).

3 bet preflop and keep the nine on the first draw. c/r just like you said if they drew 1. If they drew 2 with us, it's better to just lead out and see what happens. You can dump the nine to aggression or 3-bet if you don't believe them.
