I would call the turn and hope for such a tiny bet on the river which I would also call.

I think you played it fine. The problem with calling the turn is that you will get sucked into the pot a lot cuz you will pretty much have to call a river bet as well. It sucks to let it go, but I feel like you will get valuetowned a lot by a weak ace which is "playing for potcontrol".

Shouldn't we raise on the flop to 400 in order to find out where are we? Cause if he calls and really has Ax, we hope he'll check in later streets, cause he should be aware of the fact that we might easily have AJ+? Cause I noticed people tend to play like this with any pockets or KQs, so he either folds, or we get some chips with our strong pair, no?
