fold or call? $4,40 180-man, 13 left

What would you do here? Call thinking the BB is just trying to resteal you, or fold and minimise risk? After all, he could have a better hand here. I had been stealing and playing loose lately, because everyone was playing sooo tight..
Theres 13 players left at this point, it pays 18 so we're itm, payout sucks until you get to the final table.

Toss it. Despite your relatively loose image, I can't see you committing pretty much your entire stack to AJo, especially if the table has been tight.

any reads on the BB? if hes been "soooo tight" aswell thats an easy fold.
there will be much better spots for your money.

If you've been successfully stealing, I say fold this one and go back to what was working. A-J is not a hand to screw around with in this situation unless you're absolutely sure BB is making a play. Even then you're likely only a 60-40 favorite unless he has Ace-small. You'd be risking nearly all your chips in a situation where you're not desperate. Not worth it in my opinion.

You just put in over 10% of your stack, you think that he's restealing, and you have AJo against his restealing range, 13 players left and you have a 10M stack going to the FT. I would say that with this info you should get your chips in. If you think that he's truly restealing then that would mean that your AJ would play pretty well against his wide restealing range. Regardless, when you have a 10M stack or 15bb stack you shouldn't raise if you aren't willing to call an all in. You are committing too much of your stack to afford to fold. You should always know what you are going to do before you do it.

Thanks for the insight.
I thought to be pretty sure that he was restealing, so I did call - as it appears, I was right, he flipped over JTo. And sucked me out
I was just wondering about the play, because he might as well have had a big hand and he hadn't done that to me b4..

Don't be results oriented.
