SOP in postion w/ AK (general question)

[Brocktoon]

When facing a normal raise from a non-steal position early in an MTT (say you have >30BBs) holding AK and with position on the raiser is this a re-raise situation or a time to just call and see a flop?

I've been doing both and I'm not happy either way. Calling only to fold the flop UI seems too weak and re-raising often puts me in very tough spots on the flop where I feel I'm committing way too many chips on such a marginal holding early on.

Any thoughts on playing AK early on in an MTT are appreciated. Its giving me fits.
