Re: 5CD, always 3 to a pair?

With position and calling a raise with AAKxx, if your opponent draws 3, keep the K.

Is this because your opponent very often has the other two aces? Otherwise I don't get it and need more explanation plz.

I can't say if your opponent "very often" will have the other two aces, but you'll almost assuredly win if he does, and doesn't improve.
If he doesn't have the other two aces, you already have him beaten. Since he's 3-to-1 against improving (slightly less so if he's raising with KKxxx, because you have one of the two Ks), you're not nearly as worried about improving as your opponent is.
You're 4-to-1 against improving to aces up (or better) here, slightly worse than what your trailing opponent is getting to improve. With position, plus the knowledge you're ahead pre-draw, you can take some liberties here with your play and mix it up by drawing 2 or 3.
