Two preflop decisions

[kiemo]

MP3 is a very loose passive player.

Table is pretty loose postflop as the average pot is about 7.5BB

PokerRoom 1/2 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop:

Hero is Button and dealt 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Folded to MP3. MP3 calls. CO folds. Hero ??


Same table nine 9 players this time. MP3 is from first hand is now button.

Preflop:

Hero is SB and dealt 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Folded to MP1. MP1 raises. Folded to button. Button calls. Hero ??



What is the action on each of these hands.

I think I played them both wrong and immediately after clicking the action button I berated myself.


My actions in white:
<font color="white">I called the first hand. Mistake I think becuase I would like 2 players before me in the pot and I really dont want a raise from the blind, fold here.

Hand 2 I folded, At the time though I really think a call here wouldve been better becuase I think MP could open with alot here and button calling doesnt mean a great deal to me. But looking over this, if hand 1 is a fold then hand 2 is probably a fold too</font>
