I really dont like playing a hand such as AJ off multiway in a SNG early on, so i'd personally fold it pre flop.

When I limp AJ, I don't like to play it as strongly as you did here. At least slow down on the turn when you got two callers. CO cold called a bet and a raise on the flop. He has a hand he really likes, or is a complete donk. SB might be drawing, but I prefer letting him draw than building a huge pot on this turn.

I probably just call the flop, hoping to keep the pot small and get a cheap showdown with what is likely to be the strongest hand.

I much prefer having to lay down this hand because someone got the right price to hit their spade or straight than building this huge pot.

I don't see alot of hands that you beat playing it like this. Looks like he is slow-playing AA or got lucky when he got to see a cheap flop with 45. Or he could have AK or AQ. You have t900 left, fold and try to dig out, it's still early.

Oh. I definetly play it from MP. Just I do not play it like it is the nuts if I limp it. Openfolding here seems extremly tight.
