Default ($27) ATs in BB to button raise, lost here

Opp's stats were something like 27/0 at this point. Even a player like this is going to steal raise from the button, right? What's the best line here, shove back preflop? Or should I just let it go? As played, I have to shove when the A flops, right?

I think i just fold preflop, its too early to fight back. He bets strong, so i give him AJ+ here and fold the flop.

I let this go at 25/50 unless he's opened from lp several times (obv not the case here). As played I lead flop and fold to shove.

This is pretty early in the game and he has raised for the first time - I'm giving him a credit for a good hand and folding this PF.

I fold preflop too but calling can not be that bad.

On the flop, I like a bet, 250ish.

i don't mind the call pf - and when we're looking at someone whose stats are 27/0, it's important how many hands you've got logged with villain to determine if these stats mean anything or if they're random - ie. if you've played 20 hands and he's limped 5 or 6 he could be decent and have picked up hands like small PPs or bigish aces and play it like a reg. as this hand is played i like betting the flop and going from there. prob between half pot and 60%ish.
