lost 3 pots this week with AA in 5-5 game. just curious, when you have over 200bb in a pot with multiple players already in the hand what would your sizing be(yes, i realize it should be the same size with our full range)? basically played the same hand several times this week where someone raised to 25 and then there was one or two callers and i got Aces in the blinds. I raised to 120 the first time, 155 the second time, and 165 the third time lol. the players don't like folding to 3bets in this player pool obviously. went to the flop with 3 players one time(including myself) and 4 players the other two. lost all three hands: made a pretty easy fold on a 10-7-6 flop when i bet and 175 and was raised and then re-raised but lost 2 massive pots on the other hands (once when i got it in way behind and once way ahead). i'm use to tourneys where you always want a little action with AA but no longer. my OOP squeeze range in these spots is going to be very polarized: i never want to 3bet fold 88 or J10suited here. I guess this could be a long digression on range construction but was wondering if there is a “standard” raise size here. i know in a tourney if three people are in a pot for 250 at 50/100 my raise is probably going to be 1250-1500. 8x in a deep stacked cash game?

The easy answer is: you should be raising as much as people are willing to call. Clearly this player pool sounds really loose and unwilling to fold so i think you can test the limits a bit. Btw I heard you are playing cash again so if you ever want to talk hands let me know.
