Default Anybody esle folding A-A on this flop?

Pokerstars 10+1
blinds 15/30
I have 1400 in chips
I am dealt [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]UTG
I raise to 100, 3 callers, flop is
[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J
This isnt the flop I was wanting to see!
SB (1760) bets 90,BB folds, I raise to 200 trying to get information, and now MP (3000) goes all in, BB folds, and I folded, figuring that this flop would hit a lot of hands hard and basically the only hands I would be ahead of would be K-Q or a flush draw or Q-Q or K-K, still though this is a low buy in tourney and players will move all in with top pair/gutshot hands, anybody esle folding A-A here?

Sure, you lose to 3 sets out there. And sure, someone may be 4 to a flush or have an open-ended straight draw. MAYBE someone even hit JT. But I'm not worried about the set pushing - they'd just re-raise a bit more, not push for 3000.

I'm calling. If I get beat by a set, then so be it. If someone hits their flush or straight, again, so be it. But I wouldn't be surprised to see A-J or A-T showdown against you at this level of the tournament for the buy-in.

Call, call, call I say.

Uh, JJ, TT, 88, JT, J8, T8.

But, like I said, I'm still calling.

Are Q9, JT, J8, T8 really going to call the preflop raise?

I think you only have the 3 sets to really worry about. I can think of worse flops for AA.

At these stakes, I'd call/push. Lots of LAG -- even loony -- players in such a game. Four-flushes and TPTK could talk themselves into going all-in as some sort of semi-bluff. They might take down the pot . . . they might get action and win . . . or they might get a chance to start over real fast on another table.

At higher stakes, it's a much tougher call.
