If you plan to be a winning player you need to open up your hand range. No way you fold AJ here I take control and raise here. Like I said to beat a player like this you need to play aggressive and dictate the action both PF and post flop. You need to open your range agaisnt tough opponents, perhaps AJ isnt the best starting hand, but since when do you need the best hand to win?

I don't know what type of "player like this" you're talking about, but you beat bad LAGs by letting them bluff off all their chips when you've got a big hand. You (try to) beat good LAGs by randomly playing back at them, sometimes with big hands and sometimes with drawing hands (either preflop or postflop). AJo is neither a big hand nor a drawing hand, preflop nor postflop.

This is just so horribly wrong. You make money in poker by seeking out pots against bad players and avoiding pots against good players.
