Solitaire, you give more credit to a PP player than I do. I am not convinced AJs is automatically behind a Level 1 mini-raise from UTG, that is the difference between this hand and the hands you reference. Maybe it is. I'm probably not putting my tourney life at risk with this hand unless I flop a monster or potential monster, but I am willing to splash around a little with it. You can't build your stack if you are unwilling to put chips into the pot (don't get me wrong, I consider myself TAG, I just think folding here is extremely weak).

If UTG is Dan Harrington, I MIGHT fold. As it is with an anonymous PP player early in a tourney, I have to look at this as a spot where I have to risk a small to moderate amount of chips for a potential moderate to large payoff.
