Default risk chips to gain good stack?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (9 handed) internettexasholdem.com

CO (t6939)
Button (t16605)
SB (t9570)
BB (t12905)
UTG (t20482)
Hero (t23143)
MP1 (t11270)
MP2 (t12843)
MP3 (t5160)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t800</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to t5135</font>, CO calls t5135, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero ???????


i had a healty stack at this point, is this a call?
i think the pot odds are great, i have 3 to 1 for my chips.
any thoughts on the fact that i have a good stack at this point and dont need to take this change?

Push, CO made a mistake not pushing. Also, MP3 appears to be all in as well.

CO will be all in post flop, so just push now. You are behind really only AA and KK and you're getting the odds you need. Their stack sizes mean you are likely ahead.

i was going to say that i shove in a smaller tournament and fold in a bigger one, but change my mind. shove in all of them.

18k if you lose, 33k if you win, even a slightly -cEV gamble sounds fine here.
