if you could get called, preflop all in always the max EV in chips for AA regardless Tournaments and Cash games.

here's how i play it.
cash- depends on how many callers, if it's three or more , raise 3x blind usually at least one will call. regardless you only want one to two more ppl in pot the more the likely they will get cracked.
tourney--if there's blinds involved, i almost always three bet, if all fold you get the antes.
this happened to me at the casino last night playing 1/2. i get AA in bb and there's only two callers so i option. flop comes A 4 10 rainbow. i check, 3 check and button bets 10. i just flat call, and 3 flats. turn comes 4 spades. i check again, check, button bets 20. i raise to 35, 3 folds button calls. river is a 2. i thought about checking again but i figured since i called both flop and turn he would check back to be safe, in case he was on some sort of draw so i put a bet out of 20 and i get raised 55. after hollywooding, i shove all in with 145 more and he calls and turns over A 10. afterwords he commented he was confused and never put me on the aces

Preflop i suppose?

My luck would see everyone fold and that would be that. Otherwise if there are
limpers raise
Any other raises, raise.
Just raise hoping to get re-raised.

I get a rise outta playing like that.

I agree, slow play is a dangerous move. I prefer to play it aggressively. Better a small pot than a big loss

how to play AA

I have played a lot of online games and I find that AA although a great start I have seen them lose many times. I myself place a small raise and see the response and then make an even larger raise if a reraise does not come.

You need to play this hand very aggressively preflop. I always play the monsters very aggressive, I think that's the right strategy

When the action comes to you , raise , always raise or reraise 3-4 x the initial bet or raise , either it's a cash game , 6max or 9handed , or a tournament . The more players limp or try to see the flop the more probable it is your AA to be cracked and this 20% more or less that AA lose to become reality , so better raise and make most of them fold than have them all on the flop and get busted. Some guys say that when they are oop they like to play AA sometimes without raising , just limping , to set traps , I wouldn't do that.
If the blinds are low on a tournament raise a lot more than 3x or 4x (15/30 raise 180,240 )

It is the best position for AA. Alway is someone who will raise and then you go all in and dont let them see the flop. :) If they want to see, they must pay the price...

Slow play the initial stage of the tournament and in the cash when we have good]]] limpers on 2 2.5bet. Before the bubble and in the late stage and cash with LAG players aggressive . But if u have smallest stack all in. if u have bigest stack minraise slowplay.

A bit short of information here. A raise is the only bet, how much depends upon what's gone on before. One thing never to do is go all in. AA is not unbeatable

It's always a different answer from everyone that replies to your question. But it should be a question for many experience players, and I see it at card discrimination, any if you were at the table with me, I'm sure I can bluff you out of all your chips.

To answer your question, I say that because your in a different scenario, how many plays at the table, are there significant differences in chip stacks to others, how the other "8" players play.

This would only be an example; I don't try pocket aces any differently I play the cards like any other hands. Because the value of the card being Aces are the "best" and highest in the card deck, doesn't necessarily mean anything if you do not play it correctly. Sometimes you may have to fold them and there is certainly nothing wrong with that but it's so hard for many to do.

So going all in, I would not do. mix up your plays with certain hands a bit, if not all. In the blinds, you if its a free hand and 5 people have called the Big Blind, play sometimes double raise. When you see the flop follow through and play your card with the flop or turn like you have it. Bet to intimidate, check to, raises, those option are available to you just learn that it is a chance your taking at the turn to raise to an amount if you have the board when you honest have 20% chance of winning, assuming everyone else fold, and you and one person that is still in. Mind how much chip you have, play accordingly to what you can afford to lose. worse thing is you may have to fold your pocket Aces, but you at least have more hands to play with what you have left.

That's only my 2 cent, knit pick from everyone's suggestion and apply to what works best for you, if you are a beginner there are lots of trial and errors to find your way of playing. And if so I would suggest playing lots of freerolls, the first several levels would probably the hardest, don't give in to the "i might get lucky, im going all in too on the first hand".

Goodluck!

Should raise big enough to elliminate most players. Be agressive.

Good morning, josemendez.

Wait what they will do if they do not call or raise then let them see the flop and after a raise 2x but if they raise before the flop then put everything in the pot and we go to bingo poker but bet 3x then raise 2x before the flop The other question, I do not understand, my friend.

everyone wants to have such a hand, and I think we need to play aggressively but there is little chance of losing with top pair so straight all-in

You can raise enough that only one or two players remain on the table.
