Default ITM call with AK?

He's been doing a lot of this and could be almost any 2.

PartyPoker Regular Tournament, Big Blind is t600 (3 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Button (t955)
SB (t14220)
Hero (t4825)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="red">SB raises to t13920</font>, Hero?

My gut tells me to fold this. SNGPT backs up my gut, the EV ceiling is like 0.0%.

Don't have SNGPT on my laptop but i *think* this is a fold. The problem with being up against what could be almost any 2, is that you're only a 60/40 favourite of most random hands. I think you need QQ+ to call here.

I thought this was a call, but running things through SNGPT, muck these as fast as you can, even if Villain is pushing any 2. You need a PP to call this one. I call here with 99+.

When I run it against 100% it is slightly ev (by a couple of pennies). Note that if you make the small stack twice as big, this is an easy call

Weird. Actually, I used SNGwiz instead of SNGPT (being cheap and all that, brain must've thought those were the same things).
