AA in a HUGE pot

In the hand posted above :

UTG opens to $.20, MP 3b to $.80, fold around to Hero who 4b to $2.30 w AA, UTG folds, MP flats.

Pre flop I think our play is standard. Obv, we are nvr flatting here w AA. Want to build the pot & get in as much money as possible.

FLOP :

MP checks to us. On this texture, I elected to b33%. There are no flush draws & we are ahead of most of MP range ( only concern is TT/JJ, maybe TJs at a certain frequency although I dont think that hand wants to flat a 4b OOP pre flop ). MP x/r to $5.83. We are deep. I dont think ripping here is the best play. We block hands like AKs/AQs - I am not sure how often villain will have AK as that hand will most likely jam pre flop, especially suited. Additionally, having AA we block AK/AQ. So, what are villains bluffs here? KQs/at a lower frequency since we have AA he could have the AK/AQ combos. Does villain ever make this play w QQ/KK? Seems like it would be torching money as he loses against all of hands that 4b pre flop besides AK. Idk. I defaulted to calling. Does our hand operate better as a jam here? We only lose theoretically to TT/JJ. Is this one of those spots where we get it in & if he has a better hand we just say nh & move on? In retrospect, that seems like the better play. I could be off tho. Open to advice/ input on my play here.

TURN :

7h. Villain rips it all in. As I am writing this HH out I think we played this hand poorly. When he shoves turn we only lose to two hands - TT/JJ. Maybe TJs however I dont think we should see that very often. Villain should nvr have 44/77 as played ( 44 fold pre & 77 dont get to the turn in this manner ). He could still have QQ/KK, AK/AQ, KQs. Anyway, I fold. I think as played, on the turn we need to be calling off. Seems like we're ahead of too much of the hands he can have in his range. Thoughts/input more than welcome. I think I butchered this hand pretty badly. Roast away...
