Way ahead, way behind? AJs near the bubble.

- Preflop: I'd play AJ here and open for a similar amount.

- Flop play: It is a frightening board but you still have to put a bet out here. You are very likely to have the best hand. Bet 2/3 of the pot- about 700 and see what happens. If he puts you all in a call would be read dependent- I'd be inclined to fold but I'd hate it. The turn is always tricky if he flat calls. My plan would be to push if a blank comes.
