Last night I had the unusual situation of having >6,000 chips after 2 or 3 hands playing on PS in the $1.20 SNG. Three players kept re raising until we were all AI.
AA, KK, 88, 33 were the hole cards.
I couldn't believe nobody got a set. The very next hand I got AA again and tried again but they all folded.
Anyway...
How should I play in this situation?
Limp in most of the time?
Still play the same way?
I've seen many times where someone else does this and then thinks they're going to automatically win so they are in every hand with just about anything ... calling, raising, pushing, and losing to the point where they have to play catch up.
Hopefully I'll have this problem again soon.

Standard raise. limping is how you go from big stack to small stack

It always depends on stack sizes, position, reads etc etc
You can try to post your hand histories if you want to know whether or not you played optimally.
Generally speaking just raise and go from there. Can't really help you much after that without knowing more.
