2/5 PLO, hero in MP w/ $550.
BB (tight) has $400
Button (loose post flop) has $2.5K
SB (on tilt) has $200

Button straddle $10
SB calls $10, BB calls $10, UTG calls $10, UTG+1 calls $10
Hero raises to $60 w/ A

Folds to Button. Button, SB, BB call $60.

Flop ($260) Q

SB goes all in ($140)
BB goes all in ($340)

Hero?

I'm thinking if there's no more action, I'm leaning towards a call, but with the button behind, I may have to put in my whole stack.

Stack off or fold? Does your decision change if flop is rainbow?

Fold, rainbow is closer and depending on players will sometimes be a call

4-way, covering stack is still left to act behind you, you do not have any blockers to the board and no backdoor draws, except for the runner runner straight: fold is the way to go.

Are you hoping the 1st player has a nut flush draw and a small pair, the 2nd one a non-nut flush draw and a nut gut shot, and the button doesn't have anything?

Far more likely one has you beat and the other has a whopping draw to beat your turn 5 if you make it.

You missed the flop against 3 players, 2 of them like their hand on a reasonably dangerous flop. If you are supposed to still like AA in this spot, then there is something seriously wrong with me; which is actually a reasonable possibility.
