The information you gave is not enough for me to answer. You need to give more information so others can answer your query. Anyways sad to know you lost.

Looks like a call would mean allin, so if no other donks call, you have 4 other players seeing all 5 cards. How often do AA stand up in that situation? Easy fold for me

Depend on a lot of factors, but if you were serious about sticking around in the tourney after that, you'd just yell at the screen a bit and hit fold.

i would fold in this situation unless you want to gamble, although it would depend a lot on the other factors like type of game, limits, stacks. but with so many ppl calling allin aa is likely to be beat

Strangely enough if I though the other players were idiots then I think a fold here is very sensible.
I don't wanna play AA 5 way against 67s TJs KQs and 44 - When I've played with total idiots these are often the kinds of hands you'll see in this spot and AA fairs very badly against these hands with so many players. Also if I think there bad players I should be able to find better spots to take there chips off them safely.
If there all good players though. Then you gotta play.
If they're all decent players then your AA will most probably be up against AK, AKs, KK and JJ or something very close to this. This a perfect spot to get all in with AA and your chances of holding up are very good. Also if they're decent players you probably won't find a better spot for your chips and you have to take the gamble for a massive chip up.
what unlucky mister!
