Here is a contrasting hand at NL 25:

Hero is UTG, $41.30. A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Preflop: Hero raises to $41.30 (all-in), 6 folds, Button calls $25 (all-in), 2 folds.

I can't say I agree with an All-in preflop. Unless you were sure you had a read on the guy who called, and were sure he would be throwing his money away. Otherwise, you're just giving everyone great incentive to fold. This way you'll win a rediculously tiny pot with your aces most of the time, and at higher limits, almost every time. Seems like raising a good amount (5xBB) is a better way to make money in the long term, especially when you move up the limits.

Perhaps this is a variation in your play, where you go All-in every 1 in 100 times with Aces. Even so, it seems not worth it.
