Never repotting with this hand, but probably folding, especially if I think villain isn't a maniac. Your hand wants people to hang around and hopes to flop gin. As played, I'm thrilled to see it as a family pot, but puking when everyone folds behind me.
Having flatted pre, I like the flop bet and would snap-call off the flop raise, expecting to be shown AA2x, AAww, or A2ww, and SMH if shown a set.

For me, it's hard to see circumstances where I'd not fold pre. HJ:s range is much stronger than our hand and probably someone else will come along (or 3-bet!) and our relative position will be bad.

On the flop we have only 1.5*pot left, so getting it in can't be that bad. Not that there is something wrong with checking either, as our hand is rather weak anyway (I'm guessing around 40% equity on average if we get it in HU, but 3-way our equity might be pretty poor like 20%). I don't think you will ever be bet-folding a hand to this flop 1.5*pot behind, so the sizing that makes most sense is just betting full pot.

This.

Do not think calling pre is horrid here tho.
