Default $5 5k guaranteed, TPTK hand

Been at the table for <10 hands. Haven't noticed him do anything significant yet. My stack on the turn is about 2x pot which always leaves me in an awkward spot I find. So what's my turn line?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (9 handed) internettexasholdem.com

SB (t3460)
BB (t9450)
UTG (t5817)
Hero (t7920)
MP1 (t4075)
MP2 (t3047)
MP3 (t3960)
CO (t7478)
Button (t1050)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls t150, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t600</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, CO calls t600, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, UTG folds.

Flop: (t1575) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t1000</font>, CO calls t1000.

Turn: (t3575) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero ?

I just keep betting.

With a read or in a aggro type of tournie, I'd CRAI, but my default in a $5 is to take the whip to TPTK.

Bet puke call, yes. Too many [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], pair+draw, and KQ &amp; KJs to bet fold in a $5 MTT. He'll also turn up with ATo and [censored] as well.

Alright, this was simple enough then. Just felt like I needed to get back into posting hands again since it had been forever. I bet/called. I'll leave results out for now in case there's any differing opinions.

At the $5 level im looking to stick it to KJ, QJ, and charge KQ with a pot sized bet. Against a better field I would hate this spot as you might be against an overpair and loose your stack, which is why AJ sucks in this position.

Nope bet, bet, bet for me too.

As a side question/note with stacks like this is it better to charge more on the turn leaving a small amount to shove on the river or vice-versa?
