Default 22 - Bubble AQ - Dumb question

Hand #1.
150/300 Tourney Texas Hold'em Game Table (NL)
Seat 10 is the button
Total number of players : 4
Seat 2: Hero (1795)
Seat 4: mavs420 (2550)
Seat 5: joeszmo (2145)
Seat 10: Stevochan (1510)
Hero posts small blind (75)
mavs420 posts big blind (150)
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to Hero [ As, Qh ]
joeszmo calls (150)
Stevochan raises (1510) to 1510
Stevochan is all-In.
Hero folds.

The players at the table are pretty good from what I can tell. No rediculous plays so far.

If the question is, "should I have folded?", it would be awfully close, but I would probably call. Normally being the caller in that spot sucks, but too many times you'll run into A + (insert card lower than Q here). Sometimes it will also be an underpair, so be it (likely not big or he wouldn't have raised so much). AQ would be too powerful for me to let go here. The early limper would make me lean a little towards folding, but not enough to let this one go.

I really think you have to call this one. AK is way too strong to let go here, especially since you're getting 3-1.

Hand #1. Easy fold.

Hand #2. Easy call here. You aren't at risk at coming 4th this hand. You should be at about 40% to win this hand but you are getting 3-1 on your call.

If monsterstack was calling then it would be a bit tougher. But in this spot this is an easy call.
