If the other two are all in, the pot will be $1,149, and I will have to put in $551 to get to showdown. If I go all in too, the pot will be $1,700. In other words, I am risking $551 to win a $1,700 pot (actually $1,697 after the rake). So, I need equity of 32.47% to make this shove.

I have that much equity in your first range of hands. And, I think their range is at least that. However, there is another problem. If I shove, SB can now play perfectly and probably won't go in with anything less than QQ (and maybe nothing less than KK). Shouldn't that be a factor as well?

I'm starting to think that calling is just high variance with close to neutral EV.

yeah if SB is any good he's going to have exactly AA when he calls. and MP realistically QQ+, MAYBE KK+. if you want a project, figure out what % sb has AA out of a 4-bet range of AA-JJ, AK. then that % you get whatever pot odds in a 3-way all in vs AA and AA-QQ,AKs (suited just to represent that sometimes hell shove over w AK, but usually hell fold). then the % he doesnt have AA, youre getting some dead money and are facing just a range of AA-QQ,AKs HU. i have a feeling that makes the situation a good bit better
