Default 2 4/180 spots I\'m probably overthinking

Still getting used to multi-tabling, so no reads beyond the table seems to limp a lot.

First spot:

Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t15/t30
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1870
UTG+1: t3150
MP1: t1090
MP2: t1820
CO: t2340
Button: t1470
SB: t800
hero: t1210

Pre-flop: (8 players) hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG calls t30 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t45)</font>, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls t30 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t75)</font>, 3 folds, SB calls t15 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t105)</font>, hero ?

I suck with this stack size thats just above open pushing level. What to you raise to preflop, and what is your plan for the flop (especially on a whiffed flop, since thats what you usually get)?

Second spot:

Just got moved, so again no reads (although like I said before, I suck at multi-tabling, so I probably wouldn't have any anyway)

Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t50/t100
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1250
hero: t1330
MP1: t1780
MP2: t975
MP3: t1390
CO: t3840
Button: t4130
SB: t4945
BB: t4195

Pre-flop: (9 players) hero is UTG+1 with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG folds, hero ?

Is this just a simple fold pre, or am I at the point where I need to be taking risks to get some chips? Again, on the flop (assuming you make it that far), what is your plan? If you fold this, what is your raising range, and what would you do with those hands?
