Default Laydown KK to A-high flop hand history: Raise more PF and a bad call?

I'm not sure if I should have raised more PF: obviously it worked out fine for me since I would have been busted out, however I'm not sure if raise more PF I can drive out the two callers with Ax. In addition after looking at the hand again, I hate my call on the flop and realize this is probably a bad play. I figured this was a probing bet to determine where they stood. After the raise / call, I had to get out of there. Thoughts?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed) converter

SB (t1240)
BB (t880)
UTG (t1115)
UTG+1 (t720)
MP1 (t560)
MP2 (t755)
CO (t2075)
Hero (t655)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets t80</font>, Hero calls t80, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t250</font>, MP2 calls t170, Hero folds.

Raise a lot more preflop.

Fold the flop.
MP2 may have an ace or he may have two hearts.
It really doesn't matter because your hand isn't strong enough to withstand a semi-bluff all-in by MP2 if you raise for "information".

Calling is bad because it screams that you don't have an ace, and now MP2 can make a real bet on the turn knowing you can't call.
