I fold this pf.

As played I think everything is good, though maybe go for a slightly bigger c-bet, 250 or so.

I don't really see how you fold this pf...Especially from the cut-off...Overall I think its pretty standard villain certainly doesn't bet enough on river to make u consider folding so overall standard

I limp this and play the flop. But, if you do want to raise this, make it 125 to make your c-bet a bit cheaper. As played, post flop seems all good.

I agree with Kevin. AJo is too weak if we get action..I like a t225-250 bet on the flop as played

You guys really open fold AJ in the CO? That sounds crazy to me. I think OP played the hand well, but as skreemer said its probably best to go for the 2.5bb raise at this stage to stop the cbet damaging ur stack too much.

This is standard and totally fine, wp.

Folding preflop is fine too, especially in turbo.

I had an example yesterday when I raised t135 in CO with AJs, and the response I got was that a 3x-raise was better

AJo is OK to open with when I think about it, but reads would help
