Default Raise with AA UTG, 6 callers

20-table SNG. People say it is safer to raise than play for a limpraise. Didn't seem that way here.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

CO (t1010)
Button (t1880)
SB (t2820)
BB (t3220)
Hero (t1400)
UTG+1 (t1480)
MP1 (t1480)
MP2 (t260)
MP3 (t1660)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t60</font>, UTG+1 calls t60, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls t60, MP3 calls t60, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls t60, SB calls t50, BB calls t40.

Flop: (t420) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(7 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets t3160 (All-In)</font>, Hero calls t1340 (All-In), UTG+1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, Button folds, SB folds.

Turn: (t4920) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font>

River: (t4920) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t4920

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
BB has 4c 2s (two pair, fours and twos).
Hero has As Ac (one pair, aces).
Outcome: BB wins t4920. </font>

I would either limp (depending on the table) or raise to 100 at least.

eh. i imagine you won. haven't looked at the results yet, but a player that bets 3000 into a 360 pot and 6 players usually doesnt have AA beat. But always a little nerve racking to see if he flips over some unlikely two pair.

In this kind of tourney, raise more preflop. I would probably go to 80, but you certainly would get action with 100 too. Easy call on the flop. You have decent equity against 2 pair, and this is a $20 tournament.

IMO you are very likely to be behind on the flop &amp; you should fold.
