Default AK goot? Small Blind Decision

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed)

Weekly private tournament, $10 buy-in, 53 players started, only a few eliminated, 9 places pay. Button is Villain. Villain has been selectively aggressive, and historically plays a wider range of hands from late position. Villain has built up his stack without a single showdown. This is the 36th hand of the tournament at this table.

CO (t660)
Button (t2143)
Hero (t1495)
BB (t1140)
UTG (t1510)
UTG+1 (t1660)
MP1 (t1022)
MP2 (t1390)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t120</font>, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, Button calls t120, Hero calls t105, BB folds.

Flop: (t390) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t150</font>, UTG calls t150, Button calls t150.

Turn: (t840) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t300</font>, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t1873</font>.

Hero is put all in -- why here on the turn? Hero's action?

call, you said he is loose and he may have a hand like KQ-KT. all i see him having is 99 or 88 that have you beat and thats tough luck, he may also just have a flush draw. i go to the felt with this one

Yeah I probably go with this.
I don't like your flop line much.

yea i like a checkraise on the flop.. if button was the raiser PF i'd lead out.. but since it's UTG... now he's going to bet the flop, and you give butotn the chance to call too befor eyou raise... but if you bet out then you give UTG a chance to isolate you w/o anymore of button's money in.

And i think you have the best here most of the time.
