Fold. That usually means a big hand I think.

Also, you're behind this range: 22+, A7+

Really?

Here's how I took it. I know he doesn't have AJ+, JJ+. So I figure I'm way way way ahead, or slightly behind.

Why doesn't he have those hands? I've done that with QQ+ before.

Why do you want to risk everything at this point of the tourney on a hand like AJ?

I figure that most of the time, let's say about 75% of the time, I'm a 2:1 favorite or better. The rest of the time, I'm likely a coinflip.

You just pushed over such a raise with AJo didn't you?

If you really think this then there's no reason to post it. Clear call.

I posted to see if I deserved/needed to get ripped. I've seen this so rarely, and usually at these odd hours. I've just always assumed it's a drunk fool. I had not even considered it an actual strategy.
