Is my bet to small and should I play this hand differently?

Grabbed by Holdem Manager
NL Holdem $40(BB) Replayer
SB ($1,960)
BB ($4,060)
UTG ($2,000)
Hero ($2,000)
UTG+2 ($2,000)
MP1 ($2,000)
MP2 ($2,000)
CO ($2,000)
BTN ($1,980)

Dealt to Hero A♣ J♥

fold, Hero raises to $120, fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, SB raises to $440, BB raises to $4,060 (AI), fold, SB calls $1,520 (AI)

FLOP ($4,040) 2♠ 4♠ 5♦

TURN ($4,040) 2♠ 4♠ 5♦ J♠

RIVER ($4,040) 2♠ 4♠ 5♦ J♠ 5♣

SB shows Q♦ Q♠
(Pre 71%, Flop 69.8%, Turn 68.2%)

BB shows 9♥ A♠
(Pre 29%, Flop 30.2%, Turn 31.8%)

SB wins $4,040

In substance, how we should play AJo for EP?
And from MP?
Thx :heart:

In the early fase of the SNG it is often better just to fold AJ from EP and MP. It isn't that strong a hand, and you don't need to risk your stack against a better A.

This is true, in 9 handed play you should fold AJo from EP. you can raise from MP if you are on a tight table.

as played your raise size is fine and you have to fold to a 3bet.
