    It's good to mix up your play once in a while. It depends on your opponents. If a tight table, you probably want to raise as you will get action from other strong hands. At loose tables, you might trying limping and then reraising aggressive players. I know it sucks when you come in for a raise and then everyone folds. It also depends a lot on how the other players view you.

    Last time i had aces I was second to act. UTG sent in a 15 dollar raise in 1 2 live. I reraised to 35 dollars. Calling station in the cut off calls so does UTG. Flop comes JavaScript As Qs. Action flop with an awesome badbeat jackpot possiblity. I bet 50 dollars into it. cut off calls as does UTG. Turn card card was the Ace of hearts. UTG and I check. Cut off bets 80 UTG folds I call with quads. River comes the 10s. At this point I pushed all in for my last 75. I was called and I showed quads hoping to be beat by the royal for the bad beat jack pot at foxwoods that was up to 450k at the time. However she just mucked never showed. She seemed pretty dissapointed so I figure she was holding two spades. Maybe the 6 7 or 7 8. 89 would have given her a streaight flush.

    Another time before that I had aces UTG at an extremely aggressive table. There was definatly a raise coming I had about 170 or 180 in front of me. I limped in. One guy in mid position raised to 17 preflop. Another reraised to 38. Another called the 38. This was just what I wanted. So I pushed all in. First raise folded second called third caller folded. Never saw the others cards if I had to guess it was queens kings or jacks. Never showed. About 400 dollar pot.

    Always raise.. will never limp monster hands... that is a big mistake.. you can end up loosing a lot against 72 . lol .. take the blind.. better than to loose a big pot.

    Usually aggressive is the best choice , if you play someone they better have a hand you dominate (AJ+ 1010+) instead of 67 suited . This way you'll have less opponents and easier decisions post-flop .

    3-bet maybe 4-bet depending on your position. Depending on who is calling (loose-aggressive, tight-agressive) Be aggressive on the flop and then try to value bet the turn. If feel you have the best hand on the turn, value bet.
