Default Am I committed?

Hi guys, was this too greedy for early in the tourny?

blinds 10-20
Hero 1500
Villian 1500

Hero on button W/ A2, raises 100 (trying to buy-low blinds)
Villian calls

Flop A 2 7

Hero bets 400, Villian raises all-in

Hero calls, Villian shows trip As..

Should I have walked away on the all-in re-raise?

Don't raise 5x BB from LP preflop. Raise 3-4x BB.

And throwing away top and bottom pair here is really, really bad.

Hero doesn't need to bet t400 on that flop either. Bet 2/3 pot, and 3-bet all-in from there if you're raised.
