Was this the right call? MP2 was a calling station and he was kinda agressive pre-flop. On the other hand UTG was playing a bit more tight (VPIP 28, PFR 10 in 214 known hands).

^ it's fine for sure. Once you 3bet you gotta call off.

But it's worth trying how calling AK in position goes.
Personally, when I get a big stack I try to play more of a "small ball".
3-betting is not bad, just it can be better to call. Flatting AK can make others shove Ax, but once you 3bet there's a chance somebody folds even AQ.
Just try it out, if you find it isn't working for you, continue 3betting :f_thumbsup:

In a 50c SNG you can't play much differently than this. If you had called you would be in the same situation as now with less chips invested. Decent change villains over playing some hands like AQ at the micro's.
