Default A9 hand

i picked a random hand out of my PT database that i won last night and picked this one for no particular reason. is there any interesting parts in this hand? i feel like i've been playing very boring predictable ABC poker lately and a little lost in some other spots. very routine hand right?

Party 5/10, table is loose passive 4-5 players seeing the flop

preflop
utg sucky sucky sucky player limps, aggro but readable co-1 raises, loose-weak button calls, sb folds, Super Pro calls in the bb with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

flop: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
checked to the co-1 and he bets. button calls. Super Pro calls. utg calls.

turn:7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
Super Pro checks, utg checks, co-1 bets, button calls, Super Pro calls, utg folds.

river: 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Super Pro bets.

Yes fold preflop and again on the flop. In your words "next hand."

If this is very routine, ouch, the flop call is really bad. The preflop call isn't good.

Nothing at all routine.

As others have said you made a bad flop call. I think preflop is closer than others have said given the raise came from an aggressive player in pretty late position with only one real bad limper. So I don't think it's that bad really. Although I think I still fold. I don't like playing an A-high offsuit hand that may be dominated out of position in a 4-way pot.

Also, I would check the river and call but not overcall. If CO bets again he's very likely value betting an overpair. And there's a decent chance the "loose-weak" button is just calling down with a T since a weak opponent wouldn't raise it.

i can't believe how many "fold preflop"s i'm getting. against the line up i described calling here should be pretty easy.

the flop is a lot closer but i dont' think its as bad as you guys think. how many outs do you think i generally have here?

BD flush: 1 (its a one card draw so implied odds are less)
A = 2ish - possible domination from PFR
9 = 1/2 - would only make middle pair, could be against bigger pair w/ T or overpair

this is pretty yuck...considering how dirty just about all your outs are...
