For the reference of people in this thread that are thinking that people will only make this move with hands that are ahead, or that you can't stack anyone here, I had a guy check-raise me on the flop and then call my re-raise all-in on this exact same flop yesterday or the day before. He had ATo vs my AKs.

Never overestimate a donk.

I dislike the smoothcall, but it got the cute action you wanted, so why fold to it?

Your smoothcall indicates that you don't have the ace or that it isn't very strong, Ax behind you is going to over estimate his x kicker.

I say get it in there, and if villain turns over A7 or a set then oh well. I think this is easily Ace vs Ace vs Ace, and you have the best one. Aj and AQ or AT will always pay you here.

I don't think people will only make this move with hands that are ahead, I just think they will make it with hands that are ahead way more often than with hands that are not. You can't do combinatorial analysis without taking that into account or you will drastically overestimate how often he has a lone ace here.

Right, UTG may very well have a crappier hand. But with the CR not all in, and not knowing what UTG+1 is up to, it get's pretty scary.
