Default tricky spot with AAXX

Hello, new to this forum. My friends and I were having troubke with this hand so we decided to see what you guys thought.

Game is 5/5 PLO (9 handed)
Table is Loose and Passive, very loose actually.
Hero has $495
BB has $1000
MP1 has $1000
CO has $1000

Hero has A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in SB

UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP1 raises to $30, 2 folds, CO calls, 1 fold, Hero calls, BB re-raises to $130, 2 folds, MP1 calls, CO calls, Hero re-raises Allin to $500

MP1: Is a tight player who raises strong hands but does not have AAXX he most definately would go allin with that hand.

CO: Is a a loose passive player who pays off and likes to draw.

BB: Is a slightly loose player who is more aggressive than the table norm, i.e bet top two pair etc, most players here are very passive, he is may have AAXX here, but may also hold suited KK or some shiny picture cards.

Thanks on all help guys!

JT

Joke?? Maybe we really are tired... We all thought it was a clear shove but then we all began throwing out absurd scenarios that involved folding...

Well yeah, I guess you must be tired. Going allin with aces is a no-brainer, you almost can't have the worst of it. The MP1 being a tight player makes it even easier, because he probably has a hand strong enough to call you.

I once passed AA multiway preflop. It was very debatable but there was some good logic there. I'm sure if you search the forum you will be able to find it.

You're mostly true. It was an exceptional circumstance and it was still probably wrong. But not by very much at all. I'm not going to get into it again as we did it full justice last time. What I would say is that if you don't regularly consider some of the factors that tilted it towards a probably slightly poor pass, then this omission would hurt you in a $ sense more than passing the hand in the very, very rare circumstance that was described in that thread.

Remember I called the initila raise in the SB, then after the BB 3bet to $130 and got 2 callers I pushed, hoping to get it HU.

If the initial raiser [tight player] had of repushed I then would have given great thought to folding. As he would most likely have AAXX.

Also in such a loose game my friend stated that if they are in for $130 they are in for $1000. This also ruins my push.
