When you know you are up against AA

Ok the HH doesnt look good when I copy and paste it so I will have to spell it out for you, I am currently still at said table...

I am UTG, with JJ I make it $1 to go pre, cut off makes it $3, I am pretty sure this guy has AA, but the BB goes all in for $4.85 which creates an ideal situation for me. See I know cut off has AA I am freaking sure of it... but this lovely guy going all in with a short stack gives me the wonderful option of seeing the flop for only his stack when I just call his bet, the cut off player cant reraise at that point and can only fold or call. So I call and force the AA to call. Flop, well you guessed it I wouldnt be posting it if it wasnt, 4c 6c jh, I check of course, let AA do my work, he fires $5 into a $14.65 pot, I repush for $24.80 total, he calls... 7d, 5h. I win... not only did I crack his AA but the other guy had QQ... I know lucky flop but the situation called for me to call there and if I miss the set fold on the flop cause I was damn sure cut-off had AA. $47.30 pot.

yea I dont know if I was calling his raise preflop if it wasnt for the blocker all in play. I might have 80% sure I would have just to see the flop... I was dead sure he had AA... didnt even care what the $5 all n had it was $5 lol...

And thanks
