AA33 sng hand

This seems to be a spot where I'm often losing my stack, when I'd probably be better off waiting for a spot when I can get my chips in with much of the best of it, instead of gambling.

Given the preflop action, my aces are dead and somebody probably has A2. Lets say that I know for sure that if I reraise the pot, at least 2 people are coming along for the ride, if thats the case am I better off just folding? What if I think utg+1 always sticks his stack in preflop? In that case I should jam I assume.

It seems pretty sick folding AA3 preflop, especially when I can get most of my stack in, but its still very early, blinds are low, and i assume that im one of the better players.

I would play this the same way. It's high variance, and maybe if your edge over the field is great enough it would make more sense to just call, but in general I think you really can't go far wrong with always (re)raising suited AAwx. In this case it would have been nice to get one caller instead of two, but even three-handed I think your hand plays well.

You are second guessing your play but it sounds like you may be analyzing by results. In a cash game, get all your money in with AA3 everytime and same thing in a SNG. PSR is standard.

Push, if you loose the whole pot, sign up for the next one. OMG, you really don't consider folding this do you?
