CO had been limping a lot of hands. Hadn't seen a raise when he limped, so I didn't know if he'd fold to the raise preflop.

Im not sure if i like it. Pretty much every pocket pair will call you here. Depending on how loose he is, he might like his ace x with an inside straight draw also. I say check fold it down and find a better time to push.

A9o OOP is not a great hand to play if you do not know if CO folds. You did not raise enough to scare him out. if you figure that with any raise big enough to scare CO out (250 would be a good amount IMO) you will be pot-commited with your stack - then you may as well push. our FE is much greater and you eliminate your positional disadvantage.

However - your M is about 9, you just paid the blinds - I'd wait for a better hand.

I don't like the 150 raise with A9 after a caller. If you wree 1st in the pot, then fine, but just fold here.
