Default 2 straight draws for your viewing pleasure...

Hand 1: None of my opponents are aggressive.

I have 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] UTG+1
I open limp, next guy calls, a couple of folds and the CO also calls, SB folds, BB checks.

4 to the flop for 2.25 BB:

Flop: 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
BB checks, I bet, both limpers call, BB folds.

3 players to the turn for 3.75 BB:

Turn: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
I check, next guy bets, CO RAISES, my action

I'm getting a little over 3:1 on this call, I'm not closing the action, I'm drawing to the nuts in 1 direction (7). What's the play?


Hand 2: No reads.

I have T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in the BB
3 limpers, SB completes, I check.

5 to the flop for 2.5 BB:

K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
SB bets, I call, 3 folds.

HU to the turn for 3.5 BB:

8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
SB bets, my action...

Is this an easy call? What's the minimum pot I need to make this call? How important is my T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ?
