Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♠ K♥

First situation I would not 4-bet because you're not alone vs MP and worst of all you're OOP against both of them. Because CO called the 10BB he must have a hand as well, and you "only" have AKo, so I would just call. Then again, I'm a SNG player so I don't take big risks. Maybe in cash this should be read differently ;)

Second situation is different, here you are alone against a MP open and you have AKo in the BB, definitely a raise for me.

Hand 1 we cannot call with a tight player who calls where we are OOP

Hand 2 I think calling is good here.

H1 RAISE. No fold. You do not want to play mw OOP without initiative.
H2 It depends on the style of defence of SB and what type of player is BB. Here you have a very active 3 bettor as BB, so you 3b yourself.

Vs aggro MP in hand 1 with all the money in the pot, I think we can 4bet and try to get it in, even though are a bit deep.

In hand 2 I would call deepstacked. 100bb deep we can mix calls and 3bets imo.
