It doesn't matter if they notice or not. The fact is that they have 97s, and there is no way they are folding a monster like that preflop.
Ex. Last night I've sat for hours at an admittedly *great* table waiting for something good to happen and haven't done a thing. I then get AA and KK in a single orbit, and get stacks in preflop both times (once limp/reraising), show, and win. Fast forward a little while later where I've since taken some big pots without showing. I limp AQo UTG, whale (who saw both AA/KK hands) raises 97s, two fish call, I limp/raise $100 with $300 effective stacks with the whale. He calls, no doubt putting me on AA/KK. He has 97s, what, I expect him to fold?
