We're in the money and the prize structure is rather flat. The prize goes to top 27, $44 to 19-27th and $55 to 16-18th, something like that.

Hand 1. We're down to 18 or 19 players. Villain is a winning player over small sample size and seems to be on a tighter side. I guess this is still a call, am I right?

UTG+1: t26896 M = 14.16
MP: t37838 M = 19.91
CO: t23946 M = 12.60
BTN: t59545 M = 31.34
SB: t10455 M = 5.50
Hero (BB): t22120 M = 11.64
UTG: t12666 M = 6.67

Pre Flop: (t1900) Hero is BB with 9 A
5 folds, SB raises to t10355 all in, Hero calls t9555



Hand 2. So this villain would limp occasionally and fold either preflop (when there is an iso raise) or flop most of the time. I was BB in the previous hand and shoved over his limp w/ JTo or something, winning the pot uncontested. This is pretty much the first time I've seen him raising, but then my stack is rather short and I'm dealt with a pair.

Is this a fold AINEC, or can somebody find a call here?

1 fold, UTG+1 raises to t4000, 4 folds, Hero ?

1. call

2. easy fold

1. Call
2. Fold (he's never folding and, at best, you're flipping)

Alright, so what would be the lowest pocket pair I can shove here with then? Prolly around 88 or 99?

snap call #1 and fold 2 then stick in in with FE when you can open imo

This was his first raise? and he 4xed...I might go 1010+ but seems kinda nitty

Might pass on 88 but 99+ sounds right.
