Believe it or not, the repotting AAxx out of the BB is an optional play that you can go either way on. I just call a lot of the time, depending on stack sizes and how good the aces are. If you're a tight player and you're never going to be 3-betting rundowns, I actually think never reraising AAxx OOP unless you can get over 1/3 of your stack in is probably correct.
it's a five way raised pot, i assumed this was the case.
but even so, i don't think we're 3betting nearly enough preflop if we're especially worried about 3betting AA in this spot. 3betting AA only becomes -ev if our opponents know for sure what we have and can play us with our hand face up, and i'd hope we're not that tight.
