Default $50 MTT AK BB

310 person MTT, 52 peopel left. Blinds are 300/600. I am the BB and am dealt AKo. UTG+2 raises to 1200. He had 12,000 in chips while I had 5,300.

My read on this player was that he was pretty good, and limped into a couple pots w/ K10, AQ, etc. (The type of hands a lot of players will raise with in LP). He seemed to like to see flops rather than make big commitments PF.

What would you do in my spot? Call? Raise? Push?

I would normally agree, but his PF raise was suspicious, as he had been at my table for probably 30-45 mins and I don't remember seeing him raise. Especially considering it was minraised from EP.

push. Good hands don't come along that often and your stack is starting to dwindle. I think you need to make a move. He'll most likely call getting about 2.3-1, but you could have a coinflip or better.

Maybe I'm just skewed cause of the results, but he had KK and knocked me out. I do normally push here but his min raise etc got me thinking afterwords.
