Final table 100 dlls tournament…
Blinds increase every 30 min.
Prizes
8-9 place -> 500
7 -> 650
6 -> 750
5 -> 1000
4 -> 1200
3 ->1500
2 -> 2500
1 -> 4000
Blinds
10K/20K/20K BBante
9 handed
UTG2 (700K) raise to 50K... Good player that only raise with good hands in early position... In late position quite loose..
Hero in MP2 with AA (400K) shove… UTG folds…
In this particular spot my range would be TT+, AK, AQs… Then, when I am in that resteal spot with 20-25 BB I always shove with AA and KK..
But I sometimes think that with AA or KK maybe is better to raise 2.5x the villian raise and shove in the flop… What do you think? Am I losing equity with that shove with AA or KK ?...

It looks strong either way and I prefer to keep actions uniform. So either 2.5 or 2.2x or just shove.

There isn't really a wrong answer here; whether you choose to put out a standard raise, push or even flat in hopes of someone behind you squeezing, all your options have merit.
At a full final table with a relatively flat pay scale I would be more concerned about chipping up with my AA's than I would be about protecting my equity.
