I likely toss AJo preflop. If I didn't, I think it plays out the same way (given how villain played this hand) just because I don't think villain will reraise preflop and then check both the flop and the turn with an Ace, unless he knows me to be bluff happy, so Im pretty sure Im good
If opponent leads 3/4 the pot into me it becomes a little trickier. A raise for information commits me (in fact it's a shove), so I guess the line is to call the flop in position and hope he surrenders on the turn. The bad thing is if he doesn't (i.e he pushes the turn), am I really folding getting 3:1? Against a standard player I'd probably say thats the line, since they won't put more money in the pot with an ace out there after their flop bets been called, so if they do push the turn it's probably with AK (but the sick thing is this could easily be with AJ also!), but against a more advanced player, he could easily be putting me on a AJ/AQ hand which I'll toss to a turn push getting 3:1 bc they *obviously* have AK here... so now I may call.
