I look forward to hearing your explanation for why getting all-in preflop with AA in a cash game is bad.

god you are a [censored] idiot, I'm not sure what limits you play, but in a game like 5/10NL, especially in vegas, you will not get heads up with a short stack post flop against monster stacks and laggy players.

Lets just say you're dealt AA on the button, UTG opens for the standard $50, MP makes it $150, CO calls, now what (you can push and make $200, min raise, or smooth call)...limiting your options this pot will most likely go 4 ways so your AA against 3 random hands makes you a 45% fav at best, this is less than a coinflip...if you're up against a bunch of low/mid suited connectors, you drop down to approx 35% fav.

I never said it's bad to get your money in with aces but this is a cash game and you should afford to be playing correctly on all streets, not just before the flop and then make an all in postflop b/c your essentially pot committed.
