Default In the money, middle of the pack, preflop question.

Online tournament, final 4 tables, one more elimination and we're down to 3 tables and a higher payout.

My table is 7-handed at the moment. Blinds are 15K/30K, with a 1500 ante. Relevant players are:

me: in the big blind with ~400K (M = 6.5, Q = 1)
preflop raiser: 3rd to act with ~650K (M = 11, Q = 1.5)
caller: in the small blind has ~275K (M = 4.5, Q = .7)

In the hand immediately before this one, I doubled up a short stack with JJ against his KK, so I may be perceived as steaming. The preflop raiser is solid, but not overly tight or weak. The small blind has limped preflop and folded to a raise a few times, so I don't think he's very good.

It's folded to my opponent in 3rd position, who min-raises to 60K.
Everyone folds to the small blind, who calls.
I'm in the big blind with A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

My action? Note that a raise to say ~180K represents just under half of my stack, so I think I think if I raise I have to push.
