In a full-ring limit game AA will hold up something like 11 out of 20 times.

A few days ago, I was playing limit and I'm the BB. Real loose game and by the time it got to L1, it was capped and by the time it got to me there were 8 people still in. I figured at least 7, besides me, to the flop. I folded . This has happened to me several times and I'm convinced it's the right thing to do as it's hugely unlikely I can improve (other A's already out, I figure) and with that many in, I'm gonna lose to a set or flopped 2-pair.
