Deep with AA on 6way Flop
Loose splashy home game w/ blinds 0.25€/0.5€ (9handed) - a lot of big open raises (10BB+), many calls, straddles, weird mergy plays and so on.
I've around 500BB and cover the whole table. My villain in this hand is new to the game, he's unknown to me and has around 400BB.
UTG straddles 1€.
UTG+2 (Loose weirdo whale) raises to 3.5€.
Hero is next to act, looks down at AA and 3bets to 15€.
5 Players call, including my villain who's OOP to me.
Pot: 6x 15€ = 90€
Flop (6way): 853r
X, Villain donks 40€, F, Hero calls 40€, 3 folds.
Pot: 90€ + 2x 40€ = 170€
Turn (HU): T
Villain bets All-in 155€, Hero ?
I am not sure what weights more - the fact that the game is loosy goosy or that it's a multiway pot in which someone needs to be very careful w/ one pair.

I think it’s pretty much a disaster to play aces against six opponents. Players are most inelastic pre-flop, you’ve been playing with them - what bet size gets one caller? It ain’t 15
Tough solution
Most players ‘new to the game’ are not very aggressive, so this seems like legitimate strength. Could he be so raw that he thinks A8 is the nuts? He could have 99
I think you have to be there watching villain to make this guess. With one card to come, there’s not much chance to improve and villain is indicating 2pair+
All-in at low stakes - they always have it
But newbies don’t always understand and are almost never logical.
I would fold, unless I saw something you missed. V could have 88, but wouldn’t be surprised to be shown AK.
Honestly, I think you deserve to lose letting 5 players take a flop with you. I like watching everyone fold to my aces better than getting into a mess like this.
