Why are you opening on the button if your not calling his shove(or if your even considering it)? Also don't min raise and make your decision harder.

You should have made it 3x so that you do not have a decision to make. This is one of those super rare times where I would minraise with AA in your spot, becuase you are crating a "near-optimal" shove for him, and if you get the right player in the sb he will shove alot of hands into your aces..

As a result of this, A8 is a call here, A6 is not ez but probably a call against a good player nonetheless. But the whole preflop idea is a bit shaky here.

3x here not because of the SB but uz of BB you don't want to play a pot with lots of chips behind compared to pot with A6o he will defend too much and life sucks postflop with that hand. 3x here call SB shove all day long though even after your minraise.
