Re: More EX pulls after 2 AMEXs?

Did you only have one CC previously? If so, you might see a score increase from adding these accounts. Sometimes people see better scores once they get to 2-3 accounts.
Having higher overall credit limits will help you in terms of it being easier to keep your utilization low, but if you already had it at a low percentage, you won't see much benefit in that regard. Utilization is all about percentage, not absolute numbers.
If you only had one CC, you will probably also see a benefit because now you will be reporting a balance on 1/3 CCs as opposed to 1/1.
Current Score: EQ 681 (04/05/13), TU 98 728 (01/06/12), TU 04 728 (lender pull) (01/12/12), EX 742 (lender pull) (01/12/12)
Goal Score: 720
