Default AK with 8M, knowing you have no fold equity

$10 turbo with 10 min blinds. 150 left, 99 pay. I normally hate this tournament since it's a donkey crap shoot, but I just felt like playing.

I'm relatively new to the table, but there long enough to know that MP3 was an uber donk and I'm not worried about their hand.

IMO, MP2 most likely has TT-QQ, AQ, AK based on the size of their raise and it's doubtful they are folding here. I'm obviously not desparate, but I often find myself there and I wonder if this is one of those spots where a race makes sense in order to put myself in a position to win and have a healthy stack. Or is this one of those times where I should wait for a better spot since I know I don't have fold equity?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Blinds are t300/t600 + 50 ante (9 handed)

MP2 (t11605)
MP3 (t11841)
Hero (t10870)
Button (t33278)
SB (t4685)
BB (t13370)
UTG (t6150)
UTG+1 (t11610)
MP1 (t6769)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls t600, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to t3000</font>, MP3 calls t3000,

Hero?
