I would (especially given your position), and hope one of them pushes.

The flop action doesn't make sense, unless you folded out of turn before button called.

I just checked the post and heres how the flop went. I checked, villain checked , fish bet $6, i raised to $12, and villain then went all in. Fish called, and I folded.

Make it 7.5 to go preflop. No question. Stacks are too deep for anything else.

Why? Why not check to the raiser, he sure liked his cards and I can come back at him with a big reraise?

I would reraise pre-flop, but given the way that the hand played, I think that this is an excellent way to play the flop once you only called.

He'll still raise. He has no effing clue u have AA. Plus, most of the time you'll trap villain one and get him to fold a good hand b/c he knows PF raiser is behind him. Granted, it wouldnt matter in this case but you are trying to block him out and isolate with u and the PF raisor.

He'll raise if he has AQ or better. He'll fold AK or JJ to a bet, but will likely bet them.

Fish had KK, and villain had 77 for trips. The all in bet tipped off the trips for me, saving me a bundle. But it sure is hard to fold AA.
Thank you all for your comments. Good luck out there. MTFBWY. (May The Flop Be With You.) lol

What about betting to get the guy in the middle to fold? Guy in middle may have flopped a pair but may fold it if you lead out and PF raiser is behind him.

And by big reraise, you meant minraise? ... ...
