Final table question

[BIG_DEAL]

PokerStars cash tournament, final table, 4 left, Payouts are 25%, 14.3%, 9.2%, 6.9% and I'm third in chips, the blinds are 12000/24000, I'm in the BB.

SB 262073
BB 202170
UTG 180703
Button 310554

Preflop: UTG raises 180703, Button raises 310554, SB folds, I call 202170

BB: A /images/graemlins/spade.gif A /images/graemlins/heart.gif
UTG: Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif J /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
Button: K /images/graemlins/heart.gif K /images/graemlins/club.gif

Flop: 5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 6 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 10 /images/graemlins/club.gif
Turn: 2 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
River: K /images/graemlins/diamond.gif

I am almost positive I would have finished in the top two had I not gone out on this hand. Button's stack size came from an bad beat on me 8 hands prior when he caught runner runner nut flush. I was really torn over whether to call or, with both of them being AI, muck this one for tournament strategy. Comments?

Call, and delete this post while you still can...

Fold and start playing backgammon.

fold and wait until you have a more dominating possiton to triple up.

And sorry for the harsh reply but this is a no-brainer. Any time you have AA and can get all of your chips in pre-flop you do it. It's a question that is asked over and over (in different forms) with the same answer given time after time.
