Not a great board for aces but what are the stack sizes. Saying you have equal stacks doesn't help if we don't know how much you have.

In your example it makes alot of difference, because if he bet $5 into a $5 pot and you raise all-in for 40 more its probably a really bad play. But if you only have 10 left and raise all-in it isn't near as bad (maybe not right but not as bad).

Edit: See if you can find a converter (Is ther one for Bodog?). If not try and put it so we can see the actions (in $ amounts) and the pot size, it will make it alot easier to follow.

Edit #2: Your philosophy is bad. Stack size and what comes is important and can't be ignored. Some times because of stack size what comes will not matter but as a general philosophy everything matters.
