OFC pineapple variant

Hey guys, been playing a lot of this and getting kind of owned. Could anyone give any general tips? I think I need to be a lot more aggressive in going for fantasty land.

A few very general tips to try to get to FL more often in OFC pineapple: 

1. split 3-flushes for pairs more often than in regular so you can go AA-QQ/two pr/two pr or boat. In regular I play three flushes over pairs a lot (it's my default for pairs under tens/jacks)- in pineapple, I usually need a specific reason to choose a three flush over a pair. 

2. If you have very little information (i.e- you're first to act with something like 779JK) put your king up top. Sort of like how you'd play a queen in regular OFC. 

3. If you get aces to start the hand, always consider putting them in the middle - you'll usually qualify the back one way or another and you have great chances of getting kings or queens up top for FL. 

Good luck!!!
