I won't disagree with calling, but chipstack sizes do make this a little more complicated.

Calling and winning gives you a big edge in terms of taking this down. But, its still no sure thing. Calling and losing makes it pretty certain that you will finish in 7th, maybe 6th. Folding will leave you in 2nd, still with a great chance to win. If folding is wrong, it isn't wrong by much.

But, blinds are high, he seems to be stealing a lot and you have AK....
