Default (3,50) small stack shoved and hero is in the button with AJs

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t400 with t25 antes (6 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t5030)
UTG+1 (t815)
CO (t885)
Hero (t3485)
SB (t720)
BB (t4065)

Preflop: Hero is in Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="red">CO raises to t860 (All-in)</font>

CO is probably desesperate and can be pushing with anything.

SB is probably desesperate too and maybe will call with anything.

What should hero do?

[]Fold
[]Push in
[]call
[]raise

Explain your reasons for the choice.

Push in. You are right about CO and SB being desperate and maybe playing with anything so definitely not a fold. Pushing is better than calling or raising because you dont want BB in this pot with you becuase if he tries to make a play at you anytime during the hand nd you dont hit you will probably have to fold later which would suck. You just got to hope and pray BB doesnt have you a monster preflop.

Poooosh it.
Poooosh it real good.

CO's raise means nothing.
No need to worry about SB.
Keep BB OUT.

You're at 8BB. You can't call 25% of your stack and let BB in for a bargain.
