Default Sat to the Mil, 3 left, 2 seats, AKo call shove?

First time the button limps, i decide to raise AKo. He pushes, i snap call. At first i thought this is all standard, my question is: can/should i lay it down in this
spot? (I still think the call is ok, just checking)

PokerStars Game #13152521975: Tournament #65953670, $10.70+$1.00 Hold'em No Limit - Match Round II, Level V (75/150) - 2007/11/10 - 09:33:25 (ET)
Table '65953670 1' 10-max Seat #5 is the button

Seat 3: MatthijsH (4157 in chips)
Seat 5: NVmania (5169 in chips)
Seat 10: spadeflush76 (5674 in chips)

spadeflush76: posts small blind 75
MatthijsH: posts big blind 150

*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to MatthijsH [Ac Kh]

NVmania: folds
spadeflush76: calls 75
MatthijsH: raises 516 to 666
spadeflush76: raises 5008 to 5674 and is all-in
MatthijsH: calls 3491 and is all-in

*** FLOP *** [Th Qs Td]
*** TURN *** [Th Qs Td] [8s]
*** RIVER *** [Th Qs Td 8s] [9d]

*** SHOW DOWN ***
spadeflush76: shows [2s 2h] (two pair, Tens and Deuces)
MatthijsH: shows [Ac Kh] (a pair of Tens)
spadeflush76 collected 8314 from pot

*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 8314 | Rake 0
Board [Th Qs Td 8s 9d]
Seat 3: MatthijsH (big blind) showed [Ac Kh] and lost with a pair of Tens
Seat 5: NVmania (button) folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 10: spadeflush76 (small blind) showed [2s 2h] and won (8314) with two pair, Tens and Deuces

Thanks for the feedback.

That's a fold, I think QQ+ is what you need to call at this point. +cEV -$EV. Remember that building a big stack has no more value than sneaking into 2nd. You have quite a bit of play left and frequently you can sit back and watch the other 2 play big pots till they bust each other.

I think this one of the only times I would fold AK to a push and agree that QQ+ Maybe KK+ would be the appropriate range here because first means nothing.

And whats up with the 666 raise you devil. lol
