Re: Missed Placed Aggression?
Calling two cold with ATo even against a bad player is costly. How many hands could you be calling where you were ahead? Contrast that to the number of hands where you're badly dominated. If you pledged right now to never call two cold for the rest of your poker life with ATo it would save you lots of money. That said, I don't know that threebetting the flop helps much. If you are not behind your hand is very vulnerable to any card greater than a Ten or any card that connects to the straight. I say see the turn as cheaply as possible and then make your decision.
I think the second hand is a good example of appropriate aggression.
