Default AK on the satellite bubble

Situation:
-4-handed and 3 seats go the the Full Tilt 100 WSOP Seats Guaranteed tourney
-dude1 has knocked me down from 8,000 chips by coming over the top of me all the time for all my stack
-squeezer is playing zero hands waiting for me to bust out
-I haven't tangled with dude2, he's playing pretty solid
-4th pays $267 (buy-in was $75)


(couldn't find a hand converter for Full Tilt?)

150/300 Ante 25
Seat 1: bulldog999 (5,965)
Seat 2: dude1 (20,602)
Seat 4: squeezer (4,166)
Seat 5: dude2 (15,767)
bulldog999 antes 25, dude1 antes 25, squeezer antes 25, dude2 antes 25
bulldog999 posts the small blind of 150
dude1 posts the big blind of 300
The button is in seat #5
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to bulldog999 [Kh Ac]
squeezer folds
dude2 raises to 900

What am I doing with AKo on the satellite bubble here against the big stacks?

fold?... You have 20 BB's and Dude2 showed some strength.

Let Squeezer take some risks.

Fold. Also, you should not have gone from 8k to 6k, just fold those hands too.

eh, i probably push here. strong hand, and if you decide to wait for squeezer to bust, you might be faced with the unappealing prospect of getting cold-decked and having him double or triple up.

You push and buy yourself into 100seats satellite with money 4th pays.

I am generally all for folding your way in, but here you are not that far ahead of the other small stack. I don't think you can be folding AK.

Shove, your FE should be high because the last thing Villain wants is to get knocked out of his primo spot into 3rd and the chips in the middle will help your position significantly vs the other shorty (and, of course, you still have a decent shot if you get called).

You don't win satellite seats - you steal them.
