Raise to isolate pre and probably snap calling river against villains that open limp UTG.

Fold pre fold pre fold pre. You are going to get squeezed like a monkey at 25NL+ in these kinds of spots, and you're really hating any board other than a flopped straight, top two, or trips. Even then you have RIO against boats/flushes multi-way and AJ/A10/QJ, and you have no initiative.

As played, don't raise the flop. You don't have much fold equity. And fold turn. You're not getting a good price to catch two pair, trips, or a straight. Also RIO; we could already be drawing dead or super thin.

As played, calling or folding is alright. I don't expect to be good here all the time, but at 5NL we might see some lone tens 2x overbet shove here. It's basically calling to split a small pot or losing our entire stack. So I wouldn't fault folding.
