I play this the same - don't fold for one SB in the big blind with ATs.

You definitely should not have folded PF. In fact, unless I have a read on the CO as especially passive, I raise. ATs is a good hand, especially aqgainst a possible blind-steal attempt.

Am I crazy to even consider 3-betting preflop? I think CO may raise quite a wide range of hands when it's folded to him. If he just calls the 3-bet I will bet out almost any flop and expect to take it down most of the time right there.

I didn't even think of the steal attempt. For that reason alone I should have called, of course. But if he was in earlier positon I think I should fold. I don't really want to be heads up with this hand against an early raiser out of position. I see this hand as very eaily dominated.

No, you're not crazy. When I read the hand, the first thing I thought was "Steal attempt!" ATs is a fairly strong hand, and I would reraise it against a steal, no question, unless CO is supremely tight-passive.

Other than that, I play the hand the same.
