How do you play AK here? If I call I am OOP. If I push he may fold, might not... then what 50/50? If I fold I just lose my t15 blind... it is early in the game and I am in good shape... WTF should I do?

I dont mind calling here at all, it may well become a three way pot and i like AK in three way raised pots.

Call and see a flop. I'm pretty sure you can play just as well w/ 655 in your stack.

I would usually call here, but if people are calling me with AQ/KQ then I think the edge would be for a push.

Then what... fold the flop unimproved... bet aggressively if I improve? CR all-in if improved? I don't like to c-bet that often, especially to a pf raiser...

See a flop, fold if unimproved. I wouldn't try to make a play against 2 guys this early.

I prefer calling here. If you hit your A, you will be able to stack AQ because "nobody just calls with AK, everyone pushes." If you hit you K, you will stack KQ because nobody just calls with AK. And if they flop 2 pair and stack you, just remember, ITS AN $11 SNG AND THEY WEREN'T FOLDING KQ OR AQ TO YOUR PREFLOP ALL IN ANYWAY.
