    Default Was this that bad of a call preflop?

    My chat is disabled so I could not tell the guy to get bent. I like limping with hands like this early in a tournie because they are easy to get rid of if they dont hit. Look at the chat at the bottom. Thoughts?

    AJs UTG early in tourney = fold.

    I would rather open raise than do what you did

    edit: limping is probably okay though, defiantly not -EV, however I would fold playing pots OOP is not a good idea with AJ

    OOP, but decent pot odds. It's trouble, to be sure. I'd probably fold. If you do call, you really need a A J 4, K Q 10, J J 5 flop (or clubs) to continue.
