AKs -> 3bet + snapcall vs this villain
What you really want to do is play with pokerstove a little.
Use the hand you posted, give yourself the AK and guess what hands he'd go all in with.
Then check what equity you have and what odds you get on the call.

This should also answer the question about the shortstacker.

Well said. If I'm already HU or likely to be, I do not 3-bet AK here unless I am prepared to call a shove.

elliot, maybe you haven't heard, but AK is the nuts preflop!
