Nope I dont...
The problem with alot of people is that they commit everything pre flop with AA and get called. Then they get stomped on and cant understand why...
AA isnt a hand to go all in with unless forced to do so, and even then alarm bells should be ringing.
If your AA doesnt hit a set then be ready to lay it down to a large raise.
I would rather take a smaller pot with AA or risk laying it down than commit everything and find I've had my Aces cracked.
Control the pot. Dont raise madly. Just take your time, watch the board, and if someone suddenly pulls an all in out of nowhere the odds are you are beaten and discretion being hte better part of valour means LAY IT DOWN..
