Re: Raising then folding AJ pre-flop - pathetic or heroic?

AJo is definitely a raise/fold sort of hand. You really don't want to play a multiways pot with it.

No, it's really not. If there are several limpers already it can be correct to limp preflop. While it plays easier in position against one or two hands it's also ok in a large field.
Folding AJo preflop in an unraised pot in a game below 10/20 is just ridiculous.

This is the stance I've always taken. I don't mind multiway pots with a hand like A,Jo. Moreover, if it's A,Js I really don't mind multiway pots. The offsuit hand is, to me at least, a pretty easy hand to get away from postflop. Bear in mind I say this assuming I have a good read on the other players at the table.
