Default Cracked Aces Bonus - Vary How You Play Aces?

Interesting problem here - for the next 10 days, you get $10 if your aces are cracked at Absolute Poker. Here's the exact terms:

From Midnight Sunday, September 18th to Friday, September 30th at Midnight Absolute Poker will be giving away $10 to players every time they lose with pocket aces on Hold’em tables with limits of at least $1/$2 Limit or $1 NL. Three players must be dealt in the hand to be eligible.

So let's assume a $1/$2 game. (The effect will be a lot less at higher limits.) Does the fact that if you lose with Aces you get $10, change how you play them? Do you limp in rather than raise? Increased action will mean higher pots, at the risk of opponents catching something unconventional. To counter that, you get $10.

Is it worth trying to be tricky, or trickier than normal?
