Way ahead, way behind? AJs near the bubble.

I don't have any read, I was moved to the table a few hands ago, and I haven't seen him playing a single hand.

FL is fixed limit [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. I rarely play any tourneys, but I have a bit of experience in reading boards like that holding AJs [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. But you know the tricky possibility that enables the players to raise more than a small or a bigbet confuses me...

Definitely a double-edged sword here. I agree that if I would like to commit myself to the hand, I should rather do that by checking first.
I assume that you would call an all-in here after checking? But would you always push after your opponent bet? Or would you let your opponent continue bluffing by just calling his flop bet? (If it's not an all-in bet of course...)
