Default Re: AA in BB,8 limpers & I didn\'t raise. My buddy almost had a heartattack

Raise preflop for huge value, you'll have trouble protecting your hand anyways against 8 opponents, you may as well charge them the max.

Try to mitigate the downside of swelling the pot by going for a check-raise, maybe on the turn. check-call-check-raise might be the best play postflop in many situations.

preflop: raise for value.
postflop: do what you can to win the huge pot.

good luck.
