Default AA377 vs AA24Q, 5 card omaha7...

This hand came up in my home game, 5/10 blinds, No Limit, dealers choice. $500 buy in, can rebuy for another $500 if under $500 in chips. It's a friendly game - we've been playing together for over 10 years. Mostly medium limit, but now we play twice a week - one NL, the other limit.

Game is five card, 7 or better.

Anyway, I had about 3k in chips, in middle position. Very tight player - never gets outta line, rarely, if ever, bluffs, raises a few limpers in later position to $120. This means he has a premium hand - at least A2 with another baby and nut flush draw...

I see AA377, one ace is suited. I throw in $500 - fyi, I have a fairly tight image too.

Everyone folds to opponent - I can see him thinking. I know 100% now that he has AA2 with another baby minimum. He pushes $4000 into the middle. Ooopss...I though he only had about $1000 more...and I've never seen this guy bet more than $500 unless he had the nuts with redraws - so this is a very surprising bet. In case your wondering, I'd bet my life that he had AA2xx.

Question: What is my EV with this type of match up? How often will I split/scoop/get scooped/quartered? I can't find my Omaha8 program.

FWIW, I folded. Mainly because I don't play well being down a lot (I had bought tin for $2000 already), and because there are a couple real loosey players in the game who will make very reckless, even foolish, plays. So while I thought the right move was to call (to win back my $500), I didn't want to risk 2500 to do it.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

I felt a little lame laying this hand down.

We rabbit hunted, btw. Flop. J33, turn 5, river 7. We would've chopped. Of course, had I just called the flop - I would've taken the pot down then...

If I'm raising here, I'm pushing (especially if I thought the other player only had 100bb.). However against a competent Op deep stacked I'd prefer a call, but if I did raise I'd still call the Reraise.

Here's 2dimes with you ss, & him os with what I believe to be pretty close to effective cards..

Pushing all in never crossed my mind...at our game, unless you are short stacked (ie...under 400 or so, depending on time of session), 500 is a very serious bet - almost like an all in. I figured I wasn't giving up much by folding (and if you factored in his Queen high, my EV would probably be even lower), so it wasn't an real expensive fold - I hope!
