Default ($5.50) Awkward spot as shortstack with AK

I don't have too much of a read on first villain AI but th 2nd who merely smooth called has been quite active and makes a call seem alot more promising.

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t50 (7 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1125)
UTG+1 (t2640)
MP1 (t850)
CO (t3110)
Hero (t845)
SB (t1080)
BB (t3850)

Preflop: Hero is in Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="red">MP1 raises to t850 (All-in)</font>, CO calls t850
Hero?

Default Results

I called. First pusher showed KQs, loose bigstack showed Q9o, I spiked a King on the flop (two cards same suit as first pusher). I didn't get sucked out on the river this time by a Queen or a flush and tripled up.

Quit making this [censored] harder than it is. You are short and have the nuts. Call twice if you can.
