Default Re: Flopped trip 5\'s, could I get away from it?

I had a VERY similar situation in a VERY wild NL Ring Cash Game last night....

8 Handed - .25/.50 blinds}

Pocket 55

It is raised to $1.50 Preflop by UTG....3 callers (including myself on button)

Flop 5 7 K (two spades)
$6 in pot

SB leads for $2... BB raises to $5 (doesn't worry me.. he's over the top aggressive).... I bump it to $15 and get 2 callers (one all in). Turn is a blank and I push for another $25.... called.

River 8 of spades.

One guy (all lin on flop) catches his flush on the river.
Second guy (sidepot) finishes his straight (playing 69o) on the river as well.
