Default PS $16, AKo to minraise?

Villain was very loose. He reraised me first hand when I raised with AQs lp and doubled up with a set of 99. This is my third time being min-reraised at this table.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (7 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

CO (t4380)
Button (t2440)
SB (t1245)
BB (t1370)
UTG (t2315)
MP1 (t510)
Hero (t1240)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls t50, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t200</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t450</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, MP1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero ???
</font>
I know calling is out of the question, and what really put me in this spot is my 4xbb raise after the limper. What would you have done? (P.S., I almost always shove in this spot, especially with the read).

same here, looks like you get enough money in the middle to compensate for what can be a potential race.

Mmm yeah, but I really hate flipping in these spots. I seem to get into a lot of these kinds of situations (25/50 and 50/100 levels) where I'm forced to gamble.

Flipping with a 550 chips overaly is a lot better than folding and being left with 1000 chips. Plus you cant rule out AQ or even AJs from this villian.

You're not gambling, you're making a +EV play (based on your reads of course).
