Live in Euro casino, 20/20 7 handed with 2 bad players, 3rd hour of the session. I am winning 2/2 reg, they know these stakes are over my head and I am forced to play overly tight (I use this image to my advantage, managed to run three uncalled bluffs). Game is not very aggro, better players usually isoraise in late positions, sometimes it is 3bet behind them.

I (2.350, all cover) limp UTG with Ah2hAdAs, f, Good Player r 100, only blinds and I call.

F (400): Qh5d3d
x, x, x, GP bets 350, only I call.

T (1.100): 5s
I (1.900) x, he bets 500...what now (Q1)?

I xr to 1.4 K, he set me allin for 500 more (to win 4.400)...what now (Q2)?

Did I butched it preF?...(Q3)

Flame away.

Results, my + high stakes regs' thoughts will follow.

im very interested to hear how this hand finished up, hopefully this story has a happy ending

Q1- personally i would fold
Q2- at this point i think you need to see the hand through to SD, but folding is also a good option
Q3- IMO you should fold pre or raise, AAAx is very handicapped, it only has a couple types of utility (NF, blocking on broadway boards, counterfeiting when board pairs, etc), its basically a hand that leaves you capped with a single overpair on the majority of run outs. IMO the hand has the most utility as a bluff on broadway boards because of its blocking properties

P.S.
Today I played this hand against the same Good Player. Rings similar undertones.

20/20, 4-way. GP (covers) r 80 on CO, only I (1.570) c on BB w/AsQhTh8c.

F (180): Ac7h4s, I (1.510) xc 160

T (500): Jh
x, GP bets 400, I (1.350)... ?

Now I have dilemma like in deal from OP (call or raise). Means, should I end hand now (even if not winning at the moment, I have fistful of redraws) or let him bluff river (but risking that he'll outdraw/bluff me).
I call.

R (1.300): 8d
x, GP bets my allin 950, I...?

Now I tanked, when river came e.g. 3c I would probably fold, hating myself for not going all in on turn.
I called, decided that cannot fold two good pairs.
GP announced "good call, pair of Jacks" and flushed KQJ.

the mistake is pre, dont call, just repot try to get it headsup with the original raiser, to lower the spr and because we have a very bad playability multiway postflop.

As you see you never want to get in multiway pots with a hand like that, im a live 5/5 and 10/10 reg and did this mistake several times playing 50/100 und nitted up asfk but with time you learn that scared money is making no money.

So just open fold pre and wait for a better spot or repot and go with it but dont limp call and play multiway postflop.
