Default AA all-in pre flop at loose table, what\'s your opinion?

I'm going to be playing at a site where the pre-flop % is over 50% and I was thinking of going all-in with AA every time pre-flop... You can't do that at "normal" sites where the play is tighter as you rarely if ever get any callers, but I am guessing at these loose tables it would probably do well as the there will be callers... What do you think... I know this is a brainless way to play but all I care about is winning cash. Do you think it will work?

Even if all you care about is winning cash then I would still say play your aces well and you will get the most value out of them. I don't know of which site you are talking about but just because the preflop % is 50% doesn't mean that they will call an all in preflop enough times to make it more profitable for you to play your aces this way.

Tables where 50% see the flop are usually not used to any preflop agression. That should result in people looking to your all-in like they just spotted an alien, then instantly folding. Just play solid Poker!

Sounds resonable... I'll just play my regular game and be braced for the bigger swings...

I find this move most profitable when you are in late position and an early position player raises, with 3-4 callers behind him. If it is a real loose table sometimes people with mediocre hands like 99, KQs, AJs will pay you off. Otherwise I would just raise/reraise to a flop and take it from there.
