    The short answer is NO, but I'm sure you were looking for a more considered and well thought out response, so I will take it upon myself to give you an unbiased and extensively researched longer answer, which is YES

    Because quiet simply THEY CAN and DO.Must admit though baffles the hell out of me why they do.dav

    Blame the Hotto Meter - Both of your oppos hands would say hot pre-flop. Failing that I really have no explaination as this has happened to me on a number of occasions.

    But if they keep hitting they are gonna keep shoving.

    Bog standard squeeze play by Villain 1.  We don't know if you or the other villain having been taking a few liberties or not but if his read is he can get you both to put your hands down it's fine.  Plus he's got the stack to try and take these chances and shots at people.  Villain 2 decides to call for value.  Frankly after your three bet is shoved on in two spots I don't know why you don't fold.  You'll still be a short stack but you can find what should be a much better spot.  When we see the cards on their backs you've got to thank your lucky stars you're in such a good position.

    With your stack as it was I would more than likely be shoving all in after the first raise.

    Agreed. That would have been my serious answer but I opted for the daft answer (for a change....)
