Alot of limit players i know HATE AA. It only plays one way. Well maybe to a flush or a straight if your that lucky

They hate that hand with a passion.. You end up getting it cracked so often by two pair in limit play it makes you sick.

I donno, at least in limit there aren't the huge implied odds against your aces if you fail to make a bet so huge almost no one with a brain will call it.

I just found it humorous that both AA and KK were out and trying (with limited success) to drive others out of the pot! Reminded me of that quote...
