Not only has he bought in for $10, but he's posted a donkblind in MP.. He's also checked then called a PFR. I'd be happy to get it in here, if he has 97 then meh.

There's a good chance I 3-bet this preflop and get it all in on the flop against a shorty donk blinder. That's not unreasonable.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

This looks fine to me. He doesn't have 97; he could have 77, A7, A9, but he could also have any other ace AT down, or even some crap like K9. I don't think you're winning all the time here, but you're certainly winning enough for it to be a fine bet.

Any reads/stats on CO? I don't like flat-calling with AJo pre-flop, it's a reverse implied odds hand. As played, the flop push is good.

I fold PF without blinking an eye. Then in a few days or weeks I probably realize it was a leak of me - thats how it usually goes
