Fair enough jack, a good result for you, but my leak stems from being the aggressor and not the caller.

You're being passive in this instance and just calling his raises. When I get AQ, I'm usually in the position that I have to be the one making the bets. I'll raise pre-flop, usually getting a single, maybe two callers, then have to c-bet postflop.

I know there is a whole other thread on c-betting and I appreciate that it's not necessary all the time, but in these instances (small sample size rules apply here) I made pairs and good ones too. It's therefore hard for me to lay down and that's a) the leak and b) the reason they are bad cards for me.
