Re: Wasting Aces...
I actually would raise more here, hoping to make the chip leader think you're stealing. I wouldn't mind a flat call if it was just the 2 of you in the pot, but the presence of the 3rd player is really bad for you sandwiched between them.
Imagine you flat call, and now the EP player calls (with great odds). You've added 70 chips to the pot, and now have to play the hand OOP. Flop is all 1 suit, you've given the SB a free look at the flop, and the EP guy over 2-1 and position.
Instead make a huge raise (you pick up 120 chips if they all fold), and maybe 1 of them chases you thinking you're making a play.
