Default (27) AK on the button. Would be calling here more appropriate?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t50 (9 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1510)
UTG+1 (t740)
MP1 (t1450)
MP2 (t1400)
Hero (t1605)
CO (t1530)
Button (t1710)
SB (t1670)
BB (t1885)

Preflop: Hero is in MP3 with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG calls t50, <font color="red">UTG+1 raises to t100</font>, <font color="gray">MP1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">MP2 folds</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to t500</font>

UTG is a solid regular and I put him on a small PP (he would have raised with QQ-AA, AK, AQ)
UTG+1 is a donk with VPIP like 80% after 10-15 hands, I put him on *.

The idea behind this raise was to isolate UTG+1 and to go allin preflop with him, because he plays everything.

So what do you think?

P.S. little brag: I'm currently #1 in sharkscope leaderboard any game 9-10 turbo $6-$15 average profit(have different name on stars). kinda nice [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

With your read, your play seems fine. Against a regular opponent I would just call with position.

I'd re-raise but I hate the raise to 500. I'd raise to 350.
