Raise preflop. Helpful enough?

Call the river.

I often don't raise from the big blind with a big pocket pair. No one is going to fold for one more bet (at least in the games I play in) and I can extract many bets from people overplaying their top pair.

These are good reasons to raise preflop.

For the record, the big blind is the only place I would consider not raising AA.

Alright, I'm convinced. I think sometimes I get a little too tricky for my own good. Thanks everyone for setting me straight.

It should of course be noted that I used those adjectives to describe the arguments, not the people making them...

I don't mean to sound too obnoxious, but it is very important to point out the gravity of the error.

QUOTE--I've been running horribly with big pocket pairs lately so I decide to simply check and see what flops before putting more money in.

How you have been running should have no effect on your decision. As has been said pleanty of times you make money every time you make the proper decisions.

Quote- I also felt that checking could help me extract more bets on later streets if I get a good flop.
I bet, all fold to small blind

Exactly why you need to make them pay preflop
