Default Re: Over-betting Aces a good or bad idea?

[ QUOTE ]
A lot of times pre-flot, huge overbets usually tend to be hands like 99,TT, or JJ (at least from my experience). Sometimes even lower pocket pairs. So if I had Queens with a big overbet (notice I didn't say reraise), I would almost always call this bet (depending on type of player, reads, etc).

That being said, I'm wondering if any of you have tried over betting pocket rockets like this. I wonder if over time this would result in more or less profit (they certainly would be cracked less often than say a standard 3.5-5xbb raise)

I'll do it sometimes if I'm bored and haven't been getting action with AA in awhile, but I go with the fake typo - raising to $44 instead of $4 at 100NL - instead of a push. Sometimes you get people coming over the top with hands that they would never call a push with.
