Re: Do you like \"just calling\" w/ AA from EP?

I can't get 1-2 callers calling deep without a limp/reraise from EP.

ummm....why not?
sometimes your opponents have good cards too.
At the WSOP ME this year.
Blinds 50/100.
UTG guy has about 12.5k and I have about 19k.
UTG guy bets 300
I have KK and raise to 1000
UTG guy re-raises to 5000
I push all-in and he calls with AA.
His AA holds up.
I've had similar experiences. You are just hoping that someone else has a decent hand and want to challenge you.
Sometimes you get that someone. Other times everyone folds because they are all looking at garbage.
The limp-reraise screams AA or KK.
Although I believe some sophisticated players can pull the ol' limp-reraise to INDUCE a fold when they are against an opponent whom they believe will read it as 'the typical' AA or KK play.
