A-rag in the BB vs big stack min-raise

Big stack had been min-raising every hand that was limped to him for the last 2 orbits, so he could have anything from AA to 72o. He'd won most of his steal attempts, but he'd showed down trash as well as folded to a re-raise.

Well, with A3, i just fold it...I wait until I have a good hand & make him pay for his raise. You still have enough to work with, so just wait on a bit of a better hand & put a re-raise on him.

I would have folded, and like the other poster said, waited for a better spot.

You have A3o. You're out of position. CO's big stack. You have A3o.

Fold.

FWIW, I did fold it, but then started 2nd guessing myself. Thanks, all, for the feedback.
