Default $12 AK RR..call or shove?

Standard to call and see a flop? I don`t like a shove to be honest.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t15/t30
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1500
UTG+1: t1500
Hero: t1500
MP2: t1500
MP3: t1500
CO: t1500
Button: t1560
SB: t1440
BB: t1500

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to t105</font>, MP2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">MP3 raises to t270</font>, 4 folds, Hero?

Some players in this sng see me as a wildman, so they call me with a semi-loose range, so I raise a little more for value at this level. t90 is also good

I usually go to 3.5 - 4bb in level 1 because I dont think it matters much to the donks (who are thep layers I want to be calling me) and also it allows my cbets to be larger on the flops I connect with, which if the donks keep calling me = more profits.

I dont think you can fold here, and I am c/f missed flops and probably CRAI flops I connect with here

Reads ?

I fold usually but a call can't be that bad, I suppose.

I fold to TAG regs. but against any other unknown donks, I shove w/ my eyes closed. I hate gambling w/ AK this early.

About 2.5 to 1 to see a flop. Calling isn't horrible. If you flop A/K the CRAI line works for me. Hate playing this way early but if I hit the flop I'm committed...
