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

The one thing that makes poker a beautiful game is that it is all situational dependent. For instance, how you play your aces is dependent on how the conditions are at the table. Sounds so obvious, but I believe that poker is all about how you understand yourself. For instance, I like to raise 3X the blind when I'm coming into a hand whether it be with suited connectors or pocket aces. If I'm well aware that I'm doing that, I can make an overbet to get some attention from the smarter players. An overbet isn't bad if the conditions are right (i.e how you are playing your big pocket pairs in that moment).
