On re-reading my question - I did not really word it well, what I really have in mind is... is there a way to somewhat reduce the risk of being eliminated when you have AA very early in a tourney.
I know that the risk exists and cannot be eliminated, but CAN IT BE REDUCED SOMEHOW?
Personally I would much rather gain 50% or even less chips with the AA if I could lower my risk of elimination this early.

Can you please explain this more to me. I agree and understand that gathering chips early is what we want to do. But do we not want to "BE/STAY IN TH GAME" in the first place?
