So, I'm playing 2-3 $300 stack, in the SB. I had been playing very tight, but only for about 3 orbits, no showdowns.
3 limpers to me. I make it 22 with Two Red Aces.
All call, 88 to the Flop.
All 3 call.
Flop is Ts6s,3s.
Best way to proceed?
I'll post my play in a couple hours.

Raise more pre. Atleast $30. I would go closer to $40 if the game was loose passive. Narrows the field and gets more value.
We don't know the stack sizes of your other opponents. If they are shorter stacks then I'm planning to bet/get it in against any raise.
If effective stack sizes are $300, the situation is dicier, but you probably have to go with your hand with this much dead money in the pot. I would lead about $80 and get it in on the flop if raised. If you get a caller, then shove any non-spade turn.

Definitely raise more pre
Flop is a really tricky spot 4 ways. I think I'm starting with a check, folding if more than one person continues and calling vs one opponent.

Yeah, you need to size up your squeeze range. If you had AJs here, would you make it bigger? Or KQs? Or TT? Yes? Then you should do the same with AA.

Thanks for the input guys. All players had me covered, so $300 effective.
Ok, on that Flop, and 3 other callers, I figured if I led out, I'd be in tuff spot to a raise.
I checked, it checked to the button, who stuck in $75. Figured I only had $20 invested, so I let it go, with two players to act after me.
They folded, and button scooped without showing. As I watched him play, he played any two suited cards, any pocket pair with limps, so he def could have flopped a baby flush or set here.
Thanks again

If he’s playing a really wide range then yes he could have flopped a lot of hands here but that also means he has a lot of misses and generally weaker hands. I would be looking to call here.
