question QQ deep to a rediculous shove?

So I have 0 invested in the pot and the hand plays out like this. It's the Sunday Million and the original raiser has been raising literally everything so I don't care what he has because I'm almost certain to be ahead of him.

This is the 2nd time that the shover has 3-bet and he's running at 35/11.

What would you do here?

I have a 12k stack blinds are 75/150:

Dealt to pates11380 [ ]
AnteUp: folds
csacsi111: folds
Franziska44: raises 150 to 300
soneer: folds
junior4718: raises 19432 to 19732 and is all-in
pates11380: ???

Wow I always think this when I have a hand like AK/QQ/JJ/TT and the action is like this. Is it +EV for the tournament to get you're money in. You are probably ahead but you are only getting evens on your money and surely there is better spots to accumulate chips? In a cash game you call for sure against this player but in tourneys, meh, it's a big risk to stick like 80bbs in.

What you do?

I'll reveal what I did in a bit, just want to hear a few more opinions. In cash I guess this is a no brainer but you have to value your tournament life. I could be flipping against AK but at best I'm only ever going to be 80% for my entire tournament life and sometimes 20%. It's a tough one!

Really really tough one. You say he's been raising everything? If it's that sort of player - I'd call after thinking about it awhile and hope that his Ace blank doesn't hit. It honestly depends as well how early on it is as well. I see that you're still in the Sunday Mill - but that doesn't reveal the outcome!

Holy **** Pates:

Dbl up with JT, then very next hand get cut down by half with AK. ****ing sucks about 88.

At least you were 1k up from the 2 hands!

UL though,

Can I ask what you had when you made that shove into the 5-way limped pot?
