AT off - your move

Do you bet 500 with AA too? I'd hate to have the more observant 200/15 players make a note that they can always push you off a 2.5xBB raise.

If the 30s, when I see someone bet 2.5xBB, I'm very sure they don't want to be called, but are too proud to min-raise. I'm even more sure when they make a bet like 525. I'm actually more likely to fold if they min-raise for the first time. Is this crazy talk?

I'm definately making some sort of minish type raise, 500 seems nice, with my big hands most of the time. This helps makes the smallish raise in spots like this more effective against observant opponents.
