FWIW, I'd prefer a smaller three bet here (with the intent to get it in on the flop no matter what) than the shove. Give your opponents a better chance to make a mistake.

A mistake post flop? I can see that. My main motivation here, since we were in the first orbit was not wanting to see a 3 way flop. With the raise and the reraise, I figured I'd get a call, but would be unlikely to get two.

I should definitely be more subtle in these situations in general.

Any kind of mistake. ANY call by your opponents when you are holding the nuts (assuming you make a real raise and don't lay them ridiculous odds) is a mistake, so raise less and imcrease the chances of one of them making one. Also, if they hit TPTK or similar on the flop, they are going to stack off every time. Granted, you increase the chances of getting sucked out on and losing the hand, but I'm just saying that in general, I think you can get more value out of AA by playing it a little differently than you did here.
