Default AK, boring preflop decision

Simple boring preflop decision

CO had been running at around 25/18/3
SB had been 22/10/4

Do we flat call this 3-bet, fold, or re-raise?

I think re-raise has to be wrong. Thoughts?

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $5/$10 Blinds - 5 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $1,262.00
Hero (BB): $1,014.50
UTG: $1,015.00
CO: $939.00
BTN: $2,390.25

Preflop: Hero is dealt K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (5 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red">CO raises to $35.00</font>, BTN folds, <font color="red">SB raises to $125.00</font>, Hero?

well, i dont think your going to be up against AQ or less ever here so chances are your flipping for the pot. against some players i would 3 bet here and against some of the more tag players i would contemplate a fold. totally situation and player dependent. i think i am raising more often than i am folding here however.

SB doesn't look like the type who will 3-bet a wide range so I fold. If SB is more like 22/18 you have a pretty easy shove.

SB is too tight, fold. If they were both PFR20 or smth then a case can be made for sometimes shoving.

I am agreeing with most people about folding. But how can we make such a ridiculous overbet? I don't understand why no one ever bets something like $350 and then call a shove or get it in the flop?
