Hi just wondering if you had any tips or advice on how to win big pots with AQ/AK and JJ+? I'm guessing 3 betting, position, flatting 2bets/3bets preflop with certain hands to trap opponents? If you can't fold with these hands after the flop is it best to go all in on the flop or the turn?

I find with these hands that the opponent folds or I end up losing a huge pot. Players are too tight. It so hard to win big pots with these hands I find.

It really depends on who are facing on the table, for example you hold AQo on the button and nit player opens from early position, it's very likely you are behind, but you have position advantage so you can just call and wait for his move on the flop.
Then you can outplay him on the streets having position advantage.

Other example if you AQo at utg and you know you are facing 2 good aggressive opponents that have position advantage over you, it's even better to fold it(let's say everyone have around 100bbs and you play full ring).

So, it really "depends" it's not easy to tell that u should always raise with AQ or AK, everything comes with experience and practise.

With these hands u can win big pots, depending on what decision u make preflop...
