How bad can be that move? I would normally rarely 3bet with AJo in that situation but I wanted to experiment with ranges. AJo is definetely borderline but against a fairly LAGgro villain (36/18 over 55 hands, rather passive postflop, has been active for the last couple of hands) should be +ev.

Poker Stars, $2.28 Buy-in (100/200 blinds) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 9 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite. View Hand #13217261

UTG+2: 7,775 (38.9 bb)
MP1: 2,626 (13.1 bb)
MP2: 1,060 (5.3 bb)
MP3: 2,810 (14.1 bb)
CO: 5,201 (26 bb)
BTN: 2,231 (11.2 bb)
Hero (SB): 2,210 (11.1 bb)
BB: 2,230 (11.2 bb)
UTG+1: 1,345 (6.7 bb)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A

UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 raises to 400, 5 folds, Hero raises to 2,210 and is all-in, 2 folds

With ur info that he's laggy and overly active the last couple hands im ok with it. Borderline indeed and wouldn't do it versus randoms ldo.

Randoms can raise/call worse hands here, and will also be raise folding a ton even vs our stack size.

Exactly villain dependent. So in this situation get it in. And look at his stack size, his raise to 400 is much less scary than if he made the same raise with a 2K stack. Here it's looking like he's planning to raise-fold vs some / raising "because he can afford to".
