Default AA first level...

Playing in the 200+15 on party, I have about 1.3k chips in the first level and have been moved to a new table.

I get dealt AcAd, ep raises to 60 (4x the bb) I make it 150 in mp, lp calls and bb calls.

Flop is T52 all spades, bb checks and ep moves all in for about 700, there is over 600 in the pot what's my move?

Hehe, dont be sorry, but I was wondering if it was the right call with 2 people still left to act behind me... I figured the guy who moved in could have a nice draw.

In other words should I really risk most of my stack on a close call like this early in a tournament?

thanks

Even if he has top pair and a spade, he only has at most, 14 outs. The only real trouble you're in is if he's holding two spades or a set. I'd call here.

You're most likely about even with his AsTx or whatever getting a 2:1 overlay (or even better, AsJx)...this isn't close.

Raising to 250 seems way to much. I think more like 150-200. Anyway, definitely call the push.

No, no, no. Please do not raise this much pre-flop with aces in the early stages of an MTT.
