you play it:

1.to steal the blinds. frankly this isn't even stealing. You have way the best hand.

2. to take the pot on the flop with a cbet.

Those two things alone=profit

3. Hitting 2 pair or trip 5s

4. outplaying your opponent with position.

Those two things == more profit

5. So you have credibility when you bet Ace high flops when you are stealing but don't have an ace.

6. So your opponents will play back at you with AT when you have AJ+

Those are more metagame/range balancing concerns, and they = still yet more profit.
