Default Time to preserve chips or do you still gamble it up?

Lets say your playing a $10 rebuy or a cheap turbo sat on stars, your the type of player who's willing to rebuy often in the hope of building a decent size stack.

The tourney is about half way thru the rebuy period and you have built up a decent stack, lets say 10-12K.

The table in general are gambling it up and there are several other medium sized stacks at the table and its basically a shove fest pre flop, however you have everyone covered by at least 2-1.

So the question, at what point do you restart applying the math? lets say you face 3 all ins on your BB, you look down at AK, what odds do you need to call here, or are you going to preserve your stack where you can use it to more effect AFTER the rebuy period? Do you continue to call with marginal situations ( no I'm not talking about folding AA or KK here! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] ) like AK or do you save it for later.

If you are folding AK when your getting roughly 3-1 preflop but its for half your chips and against 3 or more players what ARE you calling with.

Thanks in advance [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
