Default Playing thies big hands wrong?

I was looking thru my poker tracker stats and am very conserned about my big A hands. I have a small sample size but I would apriciate it if someone would give me a heads up if this is a major problem.

My stats on:
Hand times win BB/hand wtsd w$sd
------------------------------------------
AKs 10 40.00% <font color="red"> -.19 </font> 50.00% 40%
AKo 20 35.00% <font color="red"> -.04 </font> 50.00% 44.44%
AQs 08 37.50% <font color="red"> -.79 </font> 50.00% 25%
AQo 17 29.41% <font color="red"> -.58 </font> 58.82% 40%
AJs 09 33.33% <font color="green"> +.56 </font> 33.33% 100%
AJo 20 35.00% <font color="red"> -.18 </font> 33.33% 50%

The sample size is small, but 84 hands all played simalerly. If thies numbers are way out of whack I'll post some of the hands and hope to get some advise. I can't help but feel that I am playing thies badly, with all of them in the red other than one.

Thank you for the help.

Don't look at the stats. Look at the hands. If you played the hands well, the bad results are just variance. If you played the hands poorly, it's bad play.

I can't tell you if you're a good player based on a few numbers.

It is possible you are running bad, or that you have a leak in your post flop play.

For better help, post one or two hands that you thought were pretty "standard" (don't pick something boring though).

Im not sure realy which hands to post, but thies type of hands are the ones that make me wonder if I have a problem. Villan is sitting at about a 57% vpip, prity passive, and stays to the river 30% of the time. (sorry for no real reads, was multi tbling) I know better than to think there is a reasonable chance he would fold, but figure my outs are probably clean and I should stay agressive.

Nice hand. Whiffing with AK sucks.

PokerStars 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (10.40 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP2 calls, CO calls.

Turn: (6.70 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, MP2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, Hero calls, MP2 calls.

River: (9.70 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, MP2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, <font color="green"> Hero ??? </font>

Ok, one final hand. CO is out of control, vpip of 86. Mp2 is solid. Once the turn hits I get to thinking that the only thing I am ahead of hear is QQ/KK that he 3bets. When MP2 dosn't bet and the CO dose I figure I'm still good at the turn the vast majority of the time.
Should I have bet this on the turn? Do you raise the river? Don't think I am driving either of them out on the turn...and the CO is staying no matter what happens.

If MP2 is "solid," he'll typically 3bet with AA-TT and AK. On that flop, there are 8 AK's, 3 TT's, and 3 JJ's that are beating us, and 6 KK and 3 QQ that we're ahead of. I'm not bettting that flop. I like check/calling down because of the pot size, plus you have odds to hit a gutshot.
