Re: AJo preflop
Not wanting to bloat the pot w/ a hand like AJ offsuit is understandable, but if you you have good control over the table, and your opponnents are weak or predictable postflop then you are missing value by not raising here. Yeah, your postition sucks, and you'll likely miss the flop, but you're also likely the current favorite, and you should try and charge your opponnents to outflop you. Just don't get attatched or overplay the hand on later streets and you will gain value over time raising this preflop.
Checking is fine too, and I will sometimes do this based on the game conditions, or my current image at the table.
