Fold to a limp/minraise with AJo preflop?

This is one of the situations in which I don't really know what to do. Villian is 18/3/0.61 over 200ish hands.

Should I have 3bet pf to find out where I stood? I've seen villian raise AJs UTG and he's rather passive; a limp minraise usually stinks of a big pp, but I'm getting such good pot odds, plus I'm in position. Does anyone like a fold pf?

Yea...I fold pre-flop.

Fold. With any pair or something like suited connectors you have good implied odds call. AJ just sucks compared to his range.

Thanks, made mental note to fold next time [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

What if I had AJs? Is it still a fold? What about AQo?

Its tougher with AJs and AQo but seriously this guy raises PF 3% of the time. Its really not a nice spot to be in with any Ax hand. I would be interested in others opinion.

I think I'd tempted to take a peek with AQ but I don't really know what I want to hit.
