Default Is it ever correct to fold AA in a cash game?

Simple poll, do you think it could ever be correct to fold AA in a regular cash game. (This is not a trick question, this is a regular NL Holdem cash game)

Postflop, yes.

Preflop, only for metagame reasons, which translates to never for most players.

I had a hypothetical situation in mind, before I knew I was a reposter, LOL. If you held AA in the BB of a .50/1.00 game, and the game is 6 handed. Everyone at the table has $20 stacks and everyone goes all in to you. This call would have a negative EV is your opponents held AA, KK, QQ, 98s, and 54s. Not saying that you don't call, because you dont know what the other players have, but in this particular situation, the call would render a negative EV.

Sorry for the repost I should have browsed first.

i've folded AA 3 times in 10 minutes in cash game...that poll is absurdly wrong...all 3 times i made the right fold.

flops like 789, 3 suited, and so forth, are killers...lay it down.

I laid it down yesterday because the board and the villain's play smelled like a straight. I felt bad about laying down that hand, BUT I realize that you can't fall in love with ANY hand.
