Default Tstone $125 :: Trip Jacks

Early stages of Tstone tournament. I have 3k in chips with blinds at 25/50. EP2 has pretty loose pf standards and is somewhat of a calling station. Out of the 2 players behind me, I have no reads on one of them. The other is a regular at the casino and is a pretty solid tournament player.

Hero is dealt QJo on button.

EP1 limps, EP2 limps, MP2 limps, MP3 limps, CO limps, Hero limps, SB completes, BB checks.

FLOP: AcJcJ (8 players)
EP2 pushes allin for 600. Folds to me, I push allin for 3000. 2 players behind me fold.

My question is, is it better to smooth call this or push allin. Im clearly worried about flush draws, but they really dont have the correct price to play anyway, and I'm worried I missed out on a good opportunity to take some more chips off someone with another ace or jack.

Results in white:

Personally, I just push right here as well. Flush draws can still be tempted to call 600, even though it is not correct to do so. It might be better to just call mathematically, but I just want the pot. An ace might not call 600 there anyway, I know I wouldn't.
