Re: $10 - AJ Early On
 

i'm surprised at all of the people who want to fold AJo from co+1, especially at a $10 table. anyway, i always open raise it, although limping should be fine.

as played, i c-bet the flop, and then if villian is awful just keep betting, and if i think villian is decent check the turn and call a river bet (or bet river if checked to me).

Re: $10 - AJ Early On
 

I don't like the whole concept of the blinds being "worth stealing." I would be perfectly fine with being called here, although I would be much happier if it's one of the blinds that is doing the calling. After being called you get to play a flop where you're usually going to take it down with a c-bet since most people play passive in these, and if you don't win it right there you have two pretty high cards to make a pair with to fall back on. The only problem is if you play it like you did here, calling the turn c/r when your hand is not going to be good most of the time. If you are going to play this hand you need to make laydowns every once in a while.
