Fold preflop. [/ QUOTE ] I don't know if I would fold pf here. I mean, he's holding a pretty good hand, has position and has a few people calling a weak raise in front of him. I make this call pf pretty often since it will be easy to play post-flop since you get to see all the action. On the flop, I would lean towards pushing here for a few reasons. The first being that any weaker ace is always calling you. You may get villan to call with a hand like QQ or KK. You can also get the villan calling with a flush draw, since he may feel committed to the pot. On the turn, you can't really lay this hand down since you have way too much invested in this pot (based on your chip stack) with a pretty solid hand. I see that laydown as a pretty big mistake based on the odds. (Even if you call and are behind to a flush, there is still the outside chance that the board pairs (about 20% of the time). This needs to be factored into the decision making since it could turn a -ev play into a +ev play) Oh, one last thing, we can't really put the villan on a range of hands here since (unless you have seen him play before) it is still very early in the sng. |

Besides folding Preflop, i would push on the flop.
The reason for that is that a possible caller (CO) has only 530 chips left. If he`s on a FD you`ll get them anyway. Not beeing result oriented though. I guess your fold on the turn is pretty bad. You`re getting just to good odds to fold. If two ppl are all in in front of you, you might fold, because its likley one of them has a flush and the other one an Ace or boat (= you have no outs to fill up). But as played you should call. |

And if you're always folding AJo on the button to a weak raise like that, your losing alot of value. |

If you're just playing your position, you might as well do it with any two cards. Seriously, AJo is very weak in this situation and you'll get into a lot of trouble playing multiway pots with hands like this. |

Fold PF.
As played, push flop. You'll get worse A to call and you want to prevent the flush draw. As played, call turn. You're getting the odds here with the bluffing possibility, draws and overcalls. |
