don't like. You are waaay too deep here, and it's an EP raiser that raised 5xBB. Fold.

The squeeze is effective because the EP raiser should be afraid of the guy sandwiched in between. However, in a tournament full of donks, they don't even realize this.

Fold the AJ. You're too deepstacked, and your reward isn't worth the risk.

Blinds are 15/30, there is an early 5xbb raise, 2 callers, and you select to play AJo for almost all your chips even though you had 80BBs.

The fact that it is an FPP tournament makes the play even worse, since it's even more likely that you will get 1 or 2 callers, since they don't care if you so have folded 36 hands in a row.

Fooooooooold.

Fold pf.

When I see AJo here the last thing that comes my mind is "all-in"
