Default AA on button 5 handed (aka I\'m probably playing poorly)

I don't really love my line here, but the table was breaking down and I didn't want to shut everybody out with a big raise as they already had one foot out the door.
PokerRoom No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (5 handed) converter

Once he limp raises, theres almost nothing you can do not to get it all in. Raise more PF though.

I can find at least 4 spots in this hand where you should have raised/raised more. Can you?

Agreed on preflop original raise: should have been to 4xBB
Agreed on preflop reraise: should have been to $4.50
Why am I raising the flop again?
I did raise the turn.

Yeah, I just realized that I misread the hand. There were 3 spots, since the turn minraise put villain all-in. Raise the flop because MP has JJ-KK about 95% of the time here and will likely pay you off, but you don't want SB to stick around to try to catch trips or a weird two pair, which he easily could have and is getting good odds to draw to.
