Default Re: What is the best theoretical number of preflop callers to AA?

If you can get all the money in preflop, then you definitely everyone to play with you. The same is probably true if the preflop action is capped.

On the other hand, if you raise UTG and everybody calls, and then the BB is a decent player and holds 22, then I would prefer that BB fold. BB will only give you postflop action if he flops a set, and he has the pot odds to do it. He would be making a mistake to fold, and that's a mistake I want him to make.

But don't let this deter you. With aces you want as much money in preflop as possible, from as money people as possible. Most of the time people will be facing off against you with worse hands than pocket pairs. So raise, raise, raise, and be happy when people put their chips in the middle.
