Every players dream to have someone shove at their aces pre-flop as then no matter the outcome you made the right decision, you got all of your money into the pot with the best hand. I hate it when I raise with em and eveyone folds  I sit there saying to myself in mind over and over someone raise, someone raise

thanks grumpy , as you see I did call , just wanted to know what others thought . I never limp ,slow play well sometimes and maybe with wrong cards .... but then thats why I ask questions ..only way to learn .
Then why show the result without any replies?
For the record you got in a pre flop raising war with the nuts hole cards, if you fold in this spot then you should withdraw and give up if your not expecting KK QQ JJ AK AQ, you are never guaranteed to win with 5 cards to come and no possible betting action, you got unlucky and it happens, but if you can't play it any other way then you should be happy with your shove, as soon as the screenshot shows AA v KK we know the result
Think about this! how many times do you see a bidding war with AA v Kk and watch as KK wins the day? if you reraise and get called should you just call and shove a non K flop?
The threads called "what would you do" as played no problem, but do you know your options? and the bubble makes no difference to anything as what your actually saying now is "if I got this 10 hands later I would have cashed" play AA hard but remember AA is only 1 pair with 5 cards to come, and if the board pairs you could actually lose 2 pair to trips, basically if you leave no room for manouver then your playing an all in sng, if your going to be all in then be all in on the flop with the nuts, at least you have options

Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.

Thank you wiggy , yes I did make the call pre flop and knew it to be right when I did it... it was only after that I asked myself was this the right move And to find this out I asked on the forum Because I believe that many of this community are very good players . I was second guessing myself and so I posted what would you do.

As I am sure you have realised by now your play was correct and you were just unlucky. I would never fold AA preflop to any raise in a normal MTT. However in sats when near the bubble not getting involved with any hand when I have enough chips to make the payout works for me too. I have folded monsters rather than risk getting sucked out on if GTD my seat. But sats are a whole different ball game near the bubble 
It is fruitless to become lachrymose over precipitately departed lacteal fluid.
