First, this is one of the RARE times that I would call-2 in this spot. The action described, opponents described (critical BB desc), and the game condition (no one folds in 20/40), is perfect for a call here.

Keeping the pot small will punish our opponents postflop. This is fundamental TOP/HEPFAP type stuff. We dont have a HUGE edge with AJo here, we could be behind (bad players get good cards now and then). We can level our position postflop if we flop well with the aggressive player to our right that will continuation bet very often. (given the description)

Joe,

thanks for the explanation. I am still curious what you meant by high return on investment hand though.... I've never heard that term used before in this context. Intuitively, if I am getting a high ROI, I want to invest more money. That's why I was confused.

I'm a dyslexic retard at times. I meant RIO (Reverse Implied Odds), wow, those are scary close and dangerously opposite.

Sorry about that!
