Blinds are 300/600/100.

I have 7500 from a 10K starting stack. Table is pretty lolbad.

I raise to 1400 UTG with AA and I get 5(!) callers, including the blinds.

Flop (9300) A8X, rainbow.

Check to me, I bet 1400 (lol). I get 2 callers.

Turn (13500) is an 8.

I have 4700 left and I am the first to act. How do we get the most chips in the middle, generally?

c/f turn, not many worse in their ranges they'd call with and passive guys wont bet worse 3way. If turn is checked then c/c river to allow them to spazz and make their ranges wider than 88.

Bet 1400 again. Put all but one chip in on the river (3200).

I was really sedated during yesterday's session after using anti-insomnia pills and my session finished after active guy 3x-ed CO, I was on SB with A-rag and I didn't know what to do.
He annoyed me so much that I couldnt fold and after closing that table I thought Im a huge little fish in a big world of poker...... Im weak and stupid guy, but I've made 4 cashouts last month, so I have to comeback strong tomorrow and you'll feel it!

My point wasn't about whether Villain had 88 or not. I'm more wondering if livedonks typically have any concept of pot size and stacks etc. On the turn I had a 1/3 pot bet behind but I still felt like to a bad player unaware of these things it might not matter. I was just trying to get people's feels for how strong a shove looks vs. a small bet or even a check in this situation against weaker opponents.

I don't mind the trolling though. Thought it was an interesting spot. Maybe not. Maybe I'm a stupid piece of ****.

by making a forward motion with ur hands behind your stack, using enough force to counter the friction between chips and felt, whilst announcing 'am all in' in a hesitant, resigned tone.

I think my exact words were "**** it I'm all in" as I started to grab my coat off the back of the chair...

Bet 1.4k again to get called and rep just aces with a kicker and there's a chance one of the callers hit 3 eights on the turn and he will raise. If they just call, shove river. Looks less suspicious.
