yea i agree with this hand you have to make a good rasie pre flop to get rid of the stupid low connectors or suited... limit the possibilities that can beat you.. after all at that point in time you have the best hand..
at low and micro limits you should play it very agressive - bet bet bet, you should not SLOW whith a monsters but for examples at SnG 50+4 and higher sometimes you should do min raise at preflop and push on the flop if he call or may be he think that you bluff to steal blinds and push you at preflop but also you should know that it's only the pair and you should fold it on turn or may be flop after the oponent raise...

play it strong and no slowing except if you flop quads then you can slow play them but in preflop i will raise alot and continuabet allways and in turn if no draws full i will bet with no fear and try to get the flop so slowplaying is the most common mistake what people do when holdin pocket rockets

hmm i have seen many people min raise preflop with AA and i dont like this play... it lets donks play bad hands and catch the flop....i like to raise alot to get all the bad hands out....i rather go against A K or A Q then 8 9 suited......

yeah thats the point, if the flop comes LOW you are the one with the good hand, and if it comes good, your are the oner with a better hand If you slowplay PPL with low pair n stuff will just pay it
