Bringing it in for the max, PP $20/$40 stud

[Bartholow]

Hero is dealt 3h(Ah As) and is the low card showing. In order to his left, other players show Ac, Ad, 7d, 7s, Td, 9s, Jd. Hero opts to bet the $20 rather than the usual $5 minimum bring in.

Comments? My thinking was that I didn't want to play a multiway pot with my dead aces, but it still felt strange to do. The 20/40s on party are usually loose and aggressive enough that I prefer to open the minimum and then raise when it comes back to me.
