If possible, think back to the last time you had aces. When playing this hand, think about previous betting patterns, the flow of your table and your own image. Either way, I'd reccommend a raise of 4 to 5 big blinds, hoping that too many players don't call. Aces lose a lot of equity postflop, so any random hand has a better chance to improve and ultimately crack your hand, due to more equity. People often play too loose with aces, and cause thier opponents to outdraw them. A lot of the times perceived bad beats occur for that very reason.
