Default Short Stack with AA folded to you in cutoff. Action?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t600 (9 handed) converter

Hero (t5735)
Button (t29036)
SB (t7675)
BB (t40282)
UTG (t47018)
UTG+1 (t18485)
MP1 (t10400)
MP2 (t4693)
MP3 (t11205)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t5735</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>.

Final Pot: t6135

Any one slow play this or is that asking for trouble?

The button and big blind have huge stacks: they will call you. Anyone other than pushing is pretty absurd. Limping is horrid. Raising minimum is a bit better, but still not very good.

Would a raise to 1800 look too suspicious here? BB might take it as a steal.

I raise to 1800 and hope the BB calls.

From the button this is reasonable, and the CO maybe. But most players raising with 4bb in this spot aren't stealing. A lot also depends on your current image. If you have been pushing until now, then any kind of raise that is not a push is going to be very transparent.
