Default Standard AKo push at the 11s?

I've been missing a few flops so I'm down just a bit more that usual. The table has been pretty passive with not much preflop raising so I figured a push here should get me the limpers and the blinds since a raise would take a big portion of my stack and pretty much force me to push any flop anyway.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) converter

UTG (t445)
UTG+1 (t975)
MP1 (t710)
MP2 (t1025)
Hero (t505)
Button (t1285)
SB (t2295)
BB (t760)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t50, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls t50

Hero?

Your thinking is correct. There is 175 in the pot, and this represents almost 40% of your current stack. You want to win this right now, and AKo is surely a strong enough hand to move allin with here.

Push. Easy. Limper money in the pot, and you're pretty low on chips.
