"New High"

After a moderate period of BE, I finally hit a "new high" in my graph, now running at 8 bb/100 after almost 18K hands:

There were two interesting hands where I decided to use the excessive aggressiveness of my opponents against them (kindda "Jiu Jitsu" play, lol). Let me just say that those are definetly not my default play with that hand (both are aces), and that I did that because: 1- Both villains were aggressive players; 2- I closed the action in both hands, so there were no risk of getting a MW pot and 3- Once I do this, I´m not folding on ANY board, since villains are aggros and they will certainly tend to bluff more the more scary the board gets.

Villain 3bets me and I decide to just flat, since he´ll barrel a lot postflop. Then I get a dream board, villain gets TPTK in a 3bet pot, Bingo! We were probably going AI pre anyway, but whatever...

I've seen this one 4bet/fold before, so I go for a small 3bet (almost a min-raise) to induce him to 4bet light. Once he does 4bets, I go for a gay-raise to maybe induce him to shove hands like TT-JJ, AQ, maybe AJs. But I really didn´t expect him to shove so light...
