Should I have called?

As you can see I folded the following after a pre-flop raise.

I was not so worried by the Button or UTG+1 since they were short stacked.
However, UTG+2 is in good shape so he must have something to call with.
You can imagine my shock when the 7 comes up on a rainbow flop.

Was it callable?

Given the pot odds you were getting, and that you were last to act, I would say yes, this was callable.

Granted, it's probably a flop-a-set-or-get-the-hell-out situation (barring some relative miracle 6-high rainbow flop), but I still think it's worth a call. The reward here for a set is huge, and the risk is manageable.

only reason I can come up with for not pushing with AA preflop is, "I won't get called if I put all my money in now."

You definetly made the right move by folding. Calling here is definetly NOT an option. A call is almost 1/3 of your stack and is way too much to risk with just a pair of 7's because you are going to be folding those sevens on almost any flop. I would definetly fold in this situation as it looks like if you reraise all in the other two players are going to call. You definetly do not want to be all in with 7's against 3 other hands. If that 7 on the flop had been an ace instead, would you have second guessed your fold?
