Hi,

AJ should be call. Likely UTG3 shoves worse Axs hands+ all pp-s and most broadway hands.
Also he can always try to min-raise/limp with aces.
Your stack can afford to loose 2,9k

best regards,

Thanks to all for replies.

If SB folds and BB shoves with no reads, call or fold?

Call any two cards given those prices. Re-open the thread if you have questions, BTW.
