I prefer standarad 3xBB+1bb per limper on lower levels, if it was 25/50 or higher then shoving into limpfest is OK.

Agreed.


It can be tempting to shove preflop when you know you will be OOP postflop; however shoving here is definitely losing you value in the long run (and AKo is really quite easy to play postflop, too).
Make it ~210 and go from there :)

AKo isn't really that tough to play OOP. Tough hands are hands like JJ and QQ. And even then I would not get it in pre then.

Just to clarify, you mean you would not ship 50BBs over limpers @ T30 with JJ-QQ.

obviously we would be snap raise/calling QQ pre if we had the opportunity.
