Default $60; 88 in sb with short stack facing two AI\'s

I don't have a ton of respect for villains, but I don't consider them donks either. They're both in the red according to sharkscope. What do you think here?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t150 (9 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1640)
UTG+1 (t3100)
MP1 (t1235)
MP2 (t1305)
MP3 (t1120)
CO (t1025)
Button (t1260)
Hero (t705)
BB (t2110)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">MP1 folds</font>, <font color="red">MP2 raises to t1305 (All-in)</font>, <font color="gray">MP3 folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>,<font color="red">Button calls t1260 (All-in)</font>, Hero?

Eh you need like 31% equity and I doubt you have it. More like 29%. I might call with 99 and AQs. Clear call with TT+/AK imo.

I think I call here and hope to see two overcard hands. I don't like looking for a hand on this next rotation because with your stack you almost always will get called, possibly by multiple players, and it's likely you won't find a better spot. If you win this hand you'll be at 2400 and in solid shape to do well in this tournament.

You're ahead of the 1st pusher's range, but not by a extraordinary amount. We could be very generous and say the caller has a range of 66+,AT+, which you're a dog to. Definitely fold.
