SB bet 405 all in, Hero folds.

Is this standard with AK in the first 2 levels? I elected to call here because I have position, but probibly would have pushed if I did not. Does anyone push all in pre flop?

I'd be curious to know how Villain lost a quarter of his stack already, and if he might therefore be tilting. If you think so, I wouldn't mind a push. Otherwise, I think your play is fine. You're getting better than 2-1 odds on your call, and that's enough to see a flop, which you'll hit one-in-three times.

I'd raise little bit more on the preflop.

How did villain lose his $200 this early? If he made something really donkish, I'd push this. Without reads, I'd just call.
