He raises to 300 from button, I go 750(good?) with AJo.

Obviously we need to know the payout structure and remaining stack sizes; but it goes without saying it's horrible to throw 1/3 of your stack in preflop and leave yourself in a check/fold situation.

Not only do we need all of that to make an intelligent response, but a read on villain would be helpful. Still, I'm almost always folding preflop. You've got plenty of chips, you're nowhere near desperate, and AJo is just not that good of a hand. Better to be the first one in a pot with a crap hand than the second in with a mediocre one.

I gave a read on villain. Payout is whatever is standard for party sng. Can't remember other stack sizes, both close to ours, one guy supertight, one guy huge donkey.

Are you really giving up Aj to a possible steal?

As played would anyone push the flop? Anyone call his push?
