Did you have any stats on either player? What kind of hands had ticos45 shown?

Absent any other reads, I sigh and fold as you did.

AJs is too weak to 3-bet with unless you have a solid read that the 2 previous players will fold to a 3-bet a large % of the time. With a rasie and a call I'd most likely fold AJs preflop since even if you hit an Ace you are usually out kicked and if you flop the flush or broadway you aren't likely to get anyones stack.

i would fold this hand preflop. against an early position raiser there are too many hands that have you crushed to call. but having called i think your almost comitted if an ace or jack hits the board. pre flop w/this stack if you don't think you can 3bet just fold. there arent too mant hands he could be raising w/that you got beat.

Fold thats a clear fold
and I agree with Cardplayer52
