AA in big multiway pot

[beeyjay]

While in hindsight reraising preflop seems pretty obvious, I just really don't like doing that in general. Especially considering that in this hand I'm in the small blind so I think a lot of the time this pot is going to be 3 way with me and the 2 already in for a raise. I know that I love when a semi competent player reraises me preflop when I have AQ or something because then I can feel safe laying it down for a loss of only 4-5 bucks.

Because of this I'm far more likely to call with suited connectors or whatever that could break them than something that would make a second best hand. I don't know I just wanted to give my thinking on it so that you can tell me that I'm wrong on that and make it clear I'm not trying to get mor ethan a 3 way pot here.

With all that said I think I agree that with those 2 in for a raise and the limper, reraising here is probably correct.

No, you reraise pre-flop so that you WON'T be playing a 3-way pot OOP against a pre-flop aggressor. Knock out the limpers and get it heads up with a raise.
