He has to call 690 for the pot of 1550 in this spot which makes it a marginal call even if he had a hand such as AsXs (It might be close though lol)
I assume that you think flatting is best then? If I do call, what's my river line? If I check the river, I expect him to check back any one pair hands almost always. But can I really call turn, and check/fold river if, say, an offsuit T peels? Can I bet/fold river? I guess I could bet like $300, but folding the last $400 would be pretty tough given the pot size and the fact that over 50% of eff stacks went in. And he's probably folding AJ-AQ for $300 *a lot* of the time... Point is, I get no value on river if my hand is best. And, if I am best, I don't want him seeing the river for such a cheap price with something like AJs with the BDFD.
Flatting does have the benefit that I could turn my hand into a bluff if a 3, 5, or an 8 peels (putting a one-liner to a str8 on board), but I think jamming on the BD flush hitting would be really bad.
