Getting your money in as a favorite is always good. Consider this saved up karma.

First thing that I would say about this hand is your stack size which is only 11 BB. With this few chips left you have a jam stack anyway so it would not matter that the players already in are maniacs, 1010 with 11 BB left is a shove.

Lets say though that you were deeper and the effective stacks were more around 20-25 BB. In this case even though you would be ahead of both of their hands individually if they are playing all hands as you say, you would not necessarily be ahead of their hands collectively and I would advocate for a fold. In this specific case you would be lucky because both their high cards matched with it being a King but many times you would be up against K9 and QJ where you would be behind or A2 and Q5 where it would be a pure flip. Just bringing this up so you can make a distinction that with your given stack size its a shove cause you are low in chips but if you were deeper it would be much more of a decision.

Yeah I think you played this one fine, especially with the level of BBs you had left and your observation about the raiser playing any two cards - just got unlucky with the way the cards fell.
