I strongly felt that this was a fold pre at the time and wanted to see what the concensus is? My reasoning was that if I don't flop the nuts it going to be a very difficult spot if an A hits.

Villian is 36/6 over 64 hands. I'm 13/10 but doubt he would even notice this. SB very fish but 16/11 over 118 hands.

He plays pretty tight by his stats, so it's likely from this position he has a pretty good hand. I still think it's worth seeing a flop with AJs, though, especially with only the BB left to act. I'd fold to a BB squeeze, I think.

Can't imagine ever folding here. We are 32 BB's effective with AJs facing a min-raise from early position. I'm flatting here all day. I think our post-flop play is good enough to play OOP here anyways. Perfect spot for BB to squeeze. If he does and I know he's capabale of doing so with worse I snap him off.

I’m a little confused by I’m 13/10 but doubt he would even notice this. SB very fish but 16/11 over 118 hands.

Are’t you the SB? You mean BB?

But nevertheless – yeah you are flop worthy. Not sure why its even close. Yes you are out of position, but apparently the villain has a pretty broad range. Is the whole table playing as tight as you and your other reference? If that is the case and with villain’s chip surplus he can min-raise from anywhere with anything all day long and be +EV if everyone is steering clear with AJs.

Any idea on how he responds to a 3-bet?

Yep I'm SB soz. Villian does have a very narrow PRF raising range being 6 (even though it's only 64 hands but that's my read as well.)

I don't want to 3b as he will just call it every time based on my read. Plus 3-betting would make us <30bbs effective OOP so I would say it would have to be a 3b shove which I'd rather not do vs his range.
