Game type: $50 + $5 SNG
Your image: Active, mildly aggressive
Misc notes:
Your hand: A♦A♣
The BB has been loose and aggressive and has already eliminated 2 players in this SNG. Last time on the button you raised 3x with JQs and they check raised your continuation bet on the flop. Now the table folds around to you and you wake up with Aces. What is the best play here?

I’ll make a standard raise here. If the BB raises and/or the SB goes all-in, I’ll re-raise.

I’d like to play the same pattern as last turn on the button, including the continuation bet.

I’d make it 350 total. Maybe 400, something like that.
dont scare them away, dont give them too cheap a flop. This is nicely between, and as it would be my standard raise, it gives them no read on me and could look like a button steal.
The staff suggested raising 400, making it 500 total. The idea is fine enough, but even though it looks a bit weak (or like a strong A afraid of not hitting), it is still disencouraging to call that big a raise. I would need a better feel of the situation than one hand an orbit ago to try to make him call that.

I raise to $400.
If the SB pushes, and the BB calls, I push over the top. This will trap both of them and I will be a favorite to triple up.
If the SB folds and the BB calls, I lead out handsomely on the flop, or if the BB bets, I push over the top of him. (Depending on the flop of course–but for most flops that’s what I’d do.)
