implied odds donk
they KNOW you will give them all your money if you have AA. So say you have $100 bucks and you raise 3x big blind, so $3 bucks. He calls a $3 dollar raise KNOWING you have AA. He gets a monster flop, like 2 pair, set, or full house. He KNOWS you are going to give him all of your $100. So he spent $3 to see if he can hit. 3% of what he knows he can get from you if he hits. Those are odds that that give him the right to call.
So you if you do not want anyone to call you should be betting 10x big blind. You will get everyone to fold and wont lose your money, but then again you will only win the blinds.
