Default When do you fold AA?

Here are a couple of hands. The first one I think is questionable, the second one I think is clearer. Comments on all streets welcome.

Party Poker $50 No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 (6 max, 4 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

<font color="#C00000">UTG ($59.20)</font>
Button ($25.25)
SB ($45.45)
<font color="#C00000">Hero ($45)</font>

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $2</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB (poster) calls $1.75, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $5.5</font>, UTG calls $4, SB calls $4.

Flop: ($18) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $10</font>, UTG calls $53.20 (All-In), SB folds, Hero calls $29 (All-In).

Turn: ($110.20) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font>

River: ($110.20) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: $110.20

<font color="#C00000">Button ($36.60)</font>
SB ($40.50)
BB ($67.70)
UTG ($61.20)
MP ($17.50)

Default Re: When do you fold AA?

second one is automatic push

first one raise more pre-flop for sure, bump it up to like 9-10

AQ, KK, and KQ play hand 1 like that. Unfortunately so does QQ but getting 2-1 I call a push here.

You're obviously not folding either of these hands.
