should i have called this preflop?

[umdpoker]

no, i don't assume that the flop will be set-tastic. i had no read on these guys, but is it standard to fold to a raise and re-raise preflop? i obviously made the correct preflop decision, as aa and kk were out there, but should i be so quick to give credit for big pp preflop?

oh yeah, to be more specific, should i have called the original $5 when it came to me? i would have folded once they both pushed.

No, b/c:
(1) you're only a coin flip against AK/KQ/AQ
(2) big underdog to AA/KK/QQ
(3) you weren't getting the implied odds to spike a set behind all that PF action

But, dang, you woulda won a nice pot with 3-of-a-kind /images/graemlins/tongue.gif
