Default AA UTG Limp-reraise failed attempt (PP NL200 6Max)

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 6 handed) converter

CO ($463.7)
Button ($272.7)
SB ($221.9)
BB ($573.1)
UTG ($447.5)
Hero ($188.1)

Preflop: Hero is MP with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. UTG posts a blind of $4.
Hero calls $4, CO calls $4, Button folds, SB completes, BB folds, UTG (poster) checks.

Flop: ($18) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $20</font>, CO calls $20, SB calls $217.90 (All-In), UTG folds, Hero folds, CO folds.

Final Pot: $275.90

Opponent was "BadInstincts". I was playing at about 4:00 AM EST on a Thursday night, so it was just the die-hards. Table seemed pretty standard, but button (who folded here) was making rather ridiculous raises of $35 every so often. Normally I don't limp AA from any position -- maybe I will smooth call a raiser -- but in this case I thought there was a chance button was going to make an idiot raise.

At first I thought this huge overbet was middle set, hoping that either me or cutoff has QT or 88. Or some straight/nut-flush/pair-combination that gives him great equity against AQ/KQ and even odds against AA.

Then I realized he could also have had J9 for the flopped straight. All in all I think its an easy lay.

But -- what if CO didn't call? Does it get harder?
