I guess I was just going with my gut that was telling me I was losing to one of these two opponents. However, I just went with my read (rarely a good idea in my case) rather then do the pot odds calculation. The question is how does this big stack sitting behind me affect my decision here and do you agree with the initial raise?

I completely agree with the initial raise, my only criticism being that it should have been larger.

I don't think this is a fold without reads, but if either of these players is very nitty then your fold could definitely be correct.
