This player call all in preflop with AJo (min 4bet and call 5bet all in preflop). How you play here postflop? Maybe check-call/check-fold on turn/river? Seriously should maybe every hand only, less I lose because when finally catch big hand zero calls, so sick...

I see nothing drastically wrong here.
The turn could be a call, but if you've seen BU push AJ hard, the shove is fine.

I'm no hold'em expert though, so let's hear what the other say

Seems okay till the turn. Why do you shove OTT? He seems like a spew monkey. Board is dry you dont need protection. Check/call on every street. If he has an ace he will bet it anyway OTR. But with this kind of move you chase all his bluffs. Vs this player it's a cooler. Just try to forget it ASAP and move on

Bro. Has anybody tell you that you whine too much? It seems like poker is not fun for you but rather frustration. My advice is to either quit the game for while or fix your mindset or both

I lose a lot of hands last time so I must analize and try keep calm but it is very hard when for example idiot cbet on flop Js8s2c and call raise with QhTh in multiway action and must get lucky turn or another cold call on CO open raise with T9o and get lucky trips on flop. Yes I should be happy than players make bad decision but I missed a lot of strong draw, on ggpoker only one set last time and of course zero calls postflop. Maybe finally I got too good run and limpers, etc. get paid off.

Not sure if you have any reads on the villain in the hand, but villains min raise on the flop is suspicious, but if I would call the flop than I would call villain down with bluff catching. If you shove you get most of the time only action of better.
