    Reraise to around 9/10 times then snap off any shove.

    If they call your 9x rause just play the flop strong as long as no Ace hits which it isn't very likely to.

    you are massive fav against one over.. shove all in unless you have an ABSOLUTE read that they guy has aces.. I have folded kk preflop only once and not sure it was right but i knew the guy was soo tight that it had to aces or kk.. in the long run if against an unknown a shove is the most profitable play

    If you play perfectly you should still lose sometimes.

    If you keep playing perfectly, you will win overall, if you play alot.

    Sounds like you're doing the right thing - keep it up.
