I would like to know how do you play premium hands like AA or KK, approach them aggressively or passively to play with someone at the table

AA and KK are the two best starting hands. You want to be aggressive and cut down the number of opponents in the hand. Passive play with either of these hands is a recipe for disaster, especially in a loose/passive game. Raise and re-raise with them. The odds are in your favour.

With these hands you need to play only aggressively! Even in spite of the position at the table. I always go all-in with these hands!

Too many variables to give an exact answer but, in general, I try to maximize my value when I'm way ahead and minimize my losses when I'm way behind.

it all depends on the opponent you are playing with. if he is aggressive then do not rush to show up immediately lure him postflop he will show up with you. but if you're in a vacuum the play is standard
