I did not raise preflop because this tends to make table go wild and cap every bet.

I've lost my last 4 times w/ AA and my last 2 w/ KK. Been running bad. Would still never make this statement.
You have the 2nd best starting hand possible. You're a favorite over everyone except AA. You should want them to cap.
Maybe that would have driven out button.
Anyway, after the flop, there's nothing else you can do, really.

Agreed...I have been on a horrible run, but there is no way I stop getting in as many bets as possible with my premium hands. Of the last 7 times that I got KK it has lost 6 times. AA has been running almost as bad, and QQ has only been a 50% winner. Top that off with the fact that in that same timeframe 65s is my biggest winner, and sometimes it is easy to start doubting the true strength of these hands.
Overall in my last 1500 hands AA/KK/QQ have been HUGE losers, but in the total 15,000 hands that I have in PT they have been HUGE winners. If I know that the whole table is going to go nuts and cap any raise that I put in regardless of their hands then it is just more incentive to shove as much money as I can into the put. I will lose sometimes, but basically I can count a large % of every BB in that pot as mine since I KNOW that stastically I will win very often here.
