This is the nightmare flop for AA. Thoughts? Nothing of note on villian, seemed rational.

If villain is unknown then calling isn't such a bad idea. He could easily be making this play a-8 of clubs, 7-8, and at this level people will make this play with 10-10 thru k-k as well.

At PP 25NL it is hard to fold a-a after the flop and have it be the right decision enough for the fold to be correct.

I call and probably lose more than I win, but win enough for it to be slightly +EV

I would fold.

I would call if I didn't hold A/images/graemlins/club.gif

I'd probably fold here too.

I think that's a pretty easy fold without a strong read. FWIW, I'd probably raise a little more on the flop (I'd make it $5), but either way I'm not in love with an overpair when he pushes against a bet/raise.

Yea, my dad was watching me play cause he wants to learn the game, so I didnt wanna show him bad plays etc. Villian had 77, and MHIG. Oh well. Way to coordinated to call that all in.

Now, maybe this is a little more credit than I should give to CO, but any chance he's pushing you off with a wider range because of the sidepot? I mean, if you fold, he's freerolling for the main pot with UTG who could have anything. I'd call.
