If you're all-in with AA, then I'm pretty sure your EV is higher against more

for the kinds of hands that might decide to go all-in or call your all-in, but I'd
be surprised if that overturned the EV advantage of having more players. |
Sorry yes you're right, quick typing mixed with slow brain.
It's the all-in bit that's significant here I think. I meant that your EV remains constant if you were in for (say) 1000 against 5 players, or 5000 against 1. You have more +EV in this situation against multiple players only because it means the pot is bigger and you're spreading your existing positive expectation over a bigger bet.
I think that's right - am I wrong? Would appreciate clarification if so, I'm not very mathematically minded
