Default ATo checkup

(small sample size disclaimer)

I'm pretty much getting trashed with ATo, so I'm trying to be more selective about where I play preflop. Interested preflop on both, and all streets (especially turn bet) in hand 2
Hand 1:

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, Hero folds

I think my fold is good... do I raise, call or fold if UTG+1 folds?

Hand 2:

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $2.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls, SB calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls.

Flop: (10 SB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, SB calls, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (9 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls, SB calls, UTG+1 folds.

River: (12 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, Hero calls, Button folds.

Final Pot: 14 BB

I play it this way again if I have to

Default Re: ATo checkup

Hand 1 I will fold here, maybe raise if UTG+1 is loose and you're on an otherwise tight table.

Same deal, it's a raise/fold situation IMO, and what you do is going to be entirely dependant on how often you think you can get the blinds.

Hand 2 is an interesting one, reads on Button would be extremely helpful here. Barring any reads, I like your play here. Are you planning on folding to a turn raise from the button again though?
