Both of these hands occured against relative newcomers to the table, so my query concerns whether it would be standard to call down or fold against a turn raise from an unknown in such situations.
For the pocket 9s hand I would also be interested to hear how much of a difference it would make to your decision if the overcard were a K,Q or J rather than an Ace.
For the A7s hand I was wondering whether you would be more or less likely to call down/fold if the board were less co-ordinated.
Comments on all streets would also be welcome. Thanks.
