I'm unsure if I made the correct play here. We're on the final table bubble of a 27 man and are amongst the chip leaders. Wake up in SB with AK and get shoved on by small stack. Only problem is the BB has me covered. Given my tournament equity is pretty high, do I risk shoving through the BB when the chips gained from the small stack aren't huge?

No need to shove, I think just min raising is the best here as it discourages bb to flat but you can also fold if you get shoved on

minraise/call off imo. I don't like 3betting to fold to bb there, I think you have decent equity against his 4bet jamming range.

Thanks guys. The min 3 bet and fold to shove makes the most sense to me, given stack sizes and tournament position I can't see the bb shoving anything less than a premium made hand here and there's no reason to flippling for my tournament life with this many big blinds.
