I don't have any hard math that says one option is better than the other, and I wouldn't go this route if I felt like a call from Xianti was likely.
No offense, but I hate this play. You give too many people good pot odds to call the initial raise. I would call with a ton of hands given 4 to 1 on my money. The blinds probably jump in on this too with any decent hand. Calling is disaster unless you hit the flop BIG. The play here is to isolate.

I like the re-raise to $10. I think you can isolate Tyson with this hand, and if you get a $10 smooth caller he must have something worth serious consideration. Your min-raise screams KK or AA which is great for a continuation bet. I would rep any raggy/safe board irregardless of hitting it. If you put any more than $10 in this pot, you are getting dangerously close to playing for your stack due to the pot size. Hell with a PFR of $10 you might be playing for your stack already by the turn. Be ready to re-buy.

I would also re-raise to $10 with any KJ, KTs, KQ, AK-AT maybe A9s, and PP to 99. All these hands should likely be beating VP~40% and you have position. I would call with any PP 99-55 trying to set up and c-bet irregardless.
