Well.. with that flop, there really isn't much you can expect your opponents to have. Since there weren't any draws on the board, I'd check here and hope someone tries to bluff the pot or an ace lands on the turn or something. Otherwise.. it's unlikely you'll get payed here

On the other hand, making a continuation-sized bet here isn't the worst idea ever either.

good reraise size w/ two jacks to figure out where your pair actually stands...

with the flop

** Dealing Flop ** [ 4s, Jh, 7c ]

this is not to threatening, considering your opponents called a reraise of a 4xbb ($1) to 2.75

theres no flush possibility...
there is a straight draw possibility but i would not be worried about that at this point...

given this situation, i would have checked it one time to let my opponents catch up hoping they would spike a ace king or a queen or maybe their bottom set to extract more cash. hope i was any help.
ace king is not a made hand.

Not much is going to pay you there on a faily drawless board except an overpair or smaller set. Just lead for 1/2-3/4 pot and see if they'll call or raise.

The fact that both of them called the additional $2 bet leads me to believe they had AK/AA/KK/QQ/TT.

The $3 bet on the flop narrows it down to them holding AK and TT perhaps?

I guess I should have checked the flop to let them "catch" their card. Damn..
