Default (Sheets advice) Folding to button re-raiser with AK in SB (Lv1)

In the 'Fox Sports' interview Sheets gives the following advice:
"If you have Ace-King in the small blind and you have a mid-position guy raise and then the button makes a re-raise of 3x that players bet - where in a MTT you have enough chips where you might be able to make a move on top of them - in a SNG you just have to fold. And that is just to a single re-raise. Especially in level one. Level one is not the time to be committing all your chips to be honest."

The section is under 'basic strategy' and he's not specifically talking about high-stakes SNG's. Personally, I never fold in this spot and in the SNGIcons videos it is often said that you simply can't fold AK in these spots and that you have to be prepared to get it all in. What's the best play here assuming no reads on the players?
