Remember the Gap Concept. I would never call with AJ in that spot. What can you hope that he'd have? KQ? KJ? QJ?Anything else and it's pretty much A) you're dominated or B) it's a coin-flip with a small-mid pair or high cards and you're racing him for all your money.

It's way too close to the money for you to be calling raises with your measly AJ. Wait until you have a premium hand before you try and catch him being too aggressive.

Besides, you don't mind having smaller stacks call him and lose... that just bumps you up in the standings.

If this were during the rebuy period, then you could consider a call, but it's way too late to be jeopordizing your tournament with a marginal holding like AJ.

My two cents,
