It can be a very profitable way to play Aces, but it only works if you know that someone in LP will raise. Otherwise you let too many people in to see the flop and your Aces can easily end up the dog. They are just one pair after all - someone limping with with rags can end up hitting two pair or even a straight.

I like the move overall, but it's risky. Can't complain when your Aces end up cracked.
