Default $15 + 1; AQ 3 handed facing two pushes

This situation just came up and I'm confused about the right play here - is this a call or a fold? I apologize for the janked up history, I'm waiting for my license to validate for Dogwatch Handgrabber.

$15 + 1 Blinds = 300/600

SB (2440)
Hero (4705)
Button (7855)

Button is all in for 7855
SB calls for 2440
Hero has AQos. Hero ____

If you call, only way you bust in 3rd is if Sb hand beats both you guys, so yeah +ev w/ hi blinds I like the call.

You need 30% equity. Don't fold. Against good players you are looking at a tough decision with hands like J9s and 33.

i had this situation earlier where shortstack caught 2pair and so did the bigger stack (but less 2p than shortstack), I held AQ as well... shrug, results oriented but I still don't know if I like calling this

A. You call and win= 11850 and are heads up vs button who now has 3150

B. You call and lose to sb but beat button= 4530, sb who now has 7320 and button now has 3150(so not much changes but you will have position on the short stack now right?)

C. You call and tie sb and beat button= 8190, sb has 3660, button has 3150

D. You call and tie button eliminating sb= 5925, button now has 9075

E. You call and beat sb but lose to button= game over 2nd place tho

F. You call and lose but sb survives= game over 3rd place

I call
