Default 4/180 AKo early facing PF 3bet

This is one of the first hands of a 4/180.
I've already seen people 3bet here early with 88+ or AJ+ and [censored], but I have no reads at all.

What do you do?
1. fold
2. call
3. push

if you call, what is your flop plan?

CO (t1500)
Button (t1490)
SB (t1480)
BB (t1340)
UTG (t1480)
UTG+1 (t1480)
Hero (t1500)
MP2 (t1440)
MP3 (t1790)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

I'd prob just flat call and shove any flop with an A or K. Or you could shove now too, in these things you could be up against 77-AA AJ-AK, maybe even KQ suited

Why would you just call, then shove flops where you're almost 100% to be ahead, letting him fold?

Pushing is best, I think. Folding is second best and calling is bad. If you call off almost 1/5 of your stack here you could get bet off your hand by AJ if you both miss and you might not win any additional money vs. 88 and such if you hit.

this is such an easy shove. You are in mp1 so his reraising range is wide and its early. Deffo push.

Shove. Early on, people raise with strange hands. Take advantage of all the dead money in the tournament because it ain't around for long. Get in a race and build a big stack quickly.
