I thought a big raise OOP was a bit of a giveaway, but maybe im better just value betting these type of hands?

The concept of disguising your hand is a valid one, however, there are other ways to disguise monster hands, such as occasionally raising playable, non-monsters, and even occasionally raising double-suited-barely-playable trash.

If you look at the high-v-low components of your hand, you should be able to see that AAxx will always play much better short-handed and it becomes a dog four way, and it is worth your while to charge the limpers the maximum here. If you had raised pre-flop, you might have the money in the middle to justify the runner-runner draws, or else you'd certainly have a much better chance of having the AA hold up.
