Playing AAxx with regards to flop SPR and players in the pot
Hi!
So I have been thinking about how I play AAxx, the "get 1/3 pre then shove clost to all flops" is what I have been thinking about. When we get 1/3 in pre we will have an SPR of 1 post flop but what if we only get say 20% in pre but with multiple callers the SPR on the flop still comes to roughly 1. Do still stack of on almost all flops or do we play more poker?
So in short is the AAxx unexplotative play based upon getting HU with a SPR 1 or is it just getting to the flop with a SPR 1 regardless of nr villains in the pot?
Just thinking about it I would say with more players in the pot the SPR have to be incrimentally lower for us to want to shove alot of flops.

It is unexploitable against one player, SPR 1. The borderline is at around SPR 1,5 if the opponent had premium Ace-cracking hand and plays it perfectly.
If you are against 2 players, then the chance of either one outflopping you is bigger. So when ever the SPR is 2 or higher or you have 2+ opponents on the flop, you can't shove any flop and think it's +EV. You have to play poker.
The idea behind unexploitable line is that even when opponent knows you have AAxx, he can't make it -EV for you. As soon as stacks get bigger the implied odds your opponent has makes it -EV for you to shove any flop. And against 2 opponents they will hit the flop often enough to make it -EV for you at some point.
So with more callers we need a lower SPR to shove any flop profitably?
Essentially, yes
