I think folding the flop here is pretty weak. I call, and see if he is willing to put in another big bet (which he was). The turn is a fold for me. This is a set, AK or AQ fairly often.

So after a steal-raise basically all of 2p2 folds to a cr unless they have, what? TPTK?

I would have made my flop bet slightly smaller on a dry ace high board like that. Calling villans reraise on the flop and then fold to his turn bet.

Not neccessarily TPTK, just their opponents hand range.

why do i feel like OP would get completely different responses if he stopped the action after the flop c/r?

Folding that flop is basically praying that Villain is a weak tight nit. If you cbet almost anything on this flop (and I guess you do) and then fold AJ to a raise you are in the world of pain if Villain starts raising any flop with any two.
That being said most people at these stakes are weak tight and you can fold this with peaceful mind.

Yes, thats why I wrote some time ago that I almost never fold to a cbet and always raise or checkraise it unless the flop is KJT or Villain is already pissed off.
