When I receive pocket aces, I make sure to maintain my pace, but on the inside, I would be jumping for joy. I try not to be over aggressive at that moment. I try to maintain my cool all through the game. What do you do when you are dealt the best opening hand?

I get quite excited when I receive pocket aces. But I learn to comport myself not to give away any cues to the opponent. All I want to do at that point is to play them so that they don't get to flop in my hand.
 
I try my best to keep a straight face but honestly my heart starts racing a little. I focus on acting exactly the same as I would with any other hand. The hardest part is not betting too aggressively and scaring everyone away - you want action with pocket aces, not folds.
