I don't think of it so much as CRing for info so much as putting money in the pot when it's very likely I have the best hand. I play this hand hard (like a nut hand) unless I'm given reason to believe I might be beat. Also, you have to learn to open up your game a little by not only CRing with the nuts, but maybe w/TPTK, OESD, flush draw, etc. because an aware opponent will not pay you off with AA on a 972R flop when you hold 77 and put in a big CR.
