Everyone believes you; it has happened to everyone at least once or twice. TODAY, at $25NL I raised $5 pre flop with AA, was re-raised to $10. I pushed (duh!) and was called for his last $15 - 96 off 96 on turn and river. It's maddening, but it happens with uncanny regularity.

I'll take 3 or 4 [callers], but how can I expect my aces to win win unimproved if the whole table is in the hand?

You can't. AA only wins something like 34% of the time against 8 opponents.

But the key takeaway here is you've got 33% pot equity, and are only contributing something like 13% of the money, a huge overlay.

Pump up that pot, unless you clearly see you're beat. And even then, don't fold to save a bet or two, I've seen more people show down cheese trying to win a huge pot.
