Default Hand against an uber passive and lag...

live 20/40 at lucky chances
6 handed (but loose enough i think to post here)

its like 4am so we are playing short...

SB = 20/40 regular who plays too loose and a little bit too aggro once it gets short...he regularly cold calls with dominated trouble hands, is probably capable of making some tricky plays, is a somewhat thinking player but also makes some dumb mistakes (misread read his hand in one pot and almost folded the nut straight to a river bet)...

BB = a non-poker dealer that is the most loose/passive calling station i have ever encountered...i have never seen her c/r but she has bet strong hands...hand i played earlier will give you an example of her passivity. I open with AK, flop
K77 she check/calls down with 75o...

PART 1...

Preflop: Hero opens with A9o, sb and bb call...

Flop: 9h 7s 6s (6sb)
sb and bb check, hero bets, sb calls, bb raises...
Question 1: is this a super easy fold?


PART 2

hero calls and sb calls...

Turn: 7c
sb checks, bb checks...
Question 2: wtf do i do now, given that im here???

thanks in advance...

Interesting hand. The BB goes for a whiffable C/R on the flop, and she has never c/r before, passive as can be. The board pairs and you suspect that she may be at it again. Or perhaps she just flopped a nice draw like 88? She would just call with this on the flop. More likely that she has QQ/JJ/TT and still fears that you have her beat when the board turns and would prefer to take a free card. So, in this case, I check behind on the turn and take the "free" card.

Yeah, given your read the flop is a fold. You could be drawing very slim. When she checks the turn, it means she thinks her straight is no good because a boat is possible. Check behind, river a 9.
