Default AA that should have been folded preflop

nothing special, just first time i've ever seen this. FPP satellite to the Sunday $215. Top 4 get tourney buy-in. 5th place gets nothing. I think he should have folded. Maybe others disagree.



Seat 2: Tru27 (5600 in chips)
Seat 3: asa'srollin (1670 in chips)
Seat 7: jcm4ccc (17190 in chips)
Seat 8: dice77 (960 in chips)
Seat 9: astan (4580 in chips)

Tru27: posts the ante 50
asa'srollin: posts the ante 50
jcm4ccc: posts the ante 50
dice77: posts the ante 50
astan: posts the ante 50

asa'srollin: posts small blind 400
jcm4ccc: posts big blind 800

*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to jcm4ccc [6h 5c]

dice77: folds
astan: raises 3730 to 4530 and is all-in
Tru27: folds
asa'srollin: folds
jcm4ccc: folds
astan collected 2250 from pot
astan: shows [As Ah] (a pair of Aces)

After shorty folds then yeah, probably. However he is short himself and I guess he figures this is his best chance to double in case shorty makes a comeback. Still it would be best to just fold and then have everyone limp next hand and check down, right?

I am not sure playing AA here with 6xBB is that terrible, even though there are two much shorter stacks.
