Default $16 Stars: Two hands from tonight

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

SB (t1270)
Hero (t1800)
UTG (t6605)
Button (t3825)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, K.
UTG raises to t600</font>, 2 folds</font>, Hero???

Villian has been active on the bubble. I have very little fold equity if any and there is a smaller stack, any suggestions?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (6 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

BB (t3485)
Hero (t2500)
MP (t3165)
CO (t1280)
Button (t1210)
SB (t1860)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A, K.
Hero raises to t300</font>, 1 fold</font>, CO raises to t500</font>, 1 fold</font>, SB raises to t1860</font>, 1 fold</font>, Hero ???

1)If you know villian has been aggro on the bubble then AKs here is a instapush cause your so short and have little fold equality.

2)Most likely flipping for 3/4 of your stack. Folding is fine bcuz you lots of fold equality

I usually just go ahead and shove both. The first is easier, your lead on the shorter stack isn't nearly big enough to justify not pushing here. As for the second, you could be behind but with all that money in the pot you can definitley be getting all in here.

Hand 1 I instashove, shorty isn't close to being short enough. Hand 2 seems close.

hand 2 is read dependent. There's definitely a ton of ppl I'd get it in with but would fold to the better regulars. Vs unknowns I'm getting it in.

Hand 1 is always a shove.
Hand 2, you can nearly never fold here. If sb is good he'll know that co could be donating with a bunch of [censored] hands. If he's bad - well then he'll be on a weird range to begin with.
