I would seriously think about calling so I would tank here.

And then fold or call, it depends on the Force.

Would consider it BTN v SB or BvB (prolly still folding but dunno) but I think here it's definitely a fold, at least given your (lack of) reads in the OP

Fold, fold, and fold. Donkeys have no concept of value our winning money for that matter. Most bad players will shove QQ or better in this situation because they have been cracked in the past or they just don't know how to play. Tort only beating a tilt or you're sloping against AK.

The least we can do is to indulge in the aroma like Pavlov's dog to salivate the idea of calling by tanking.

Then wake up from a dream only to fold the hand like a normal person.

If I'm drunk then I'm calling, sorry GG.

Easy fold, why is everyone shortstacked at the table?

In my experience most of the time pushes like that are AK hands and the player tries to avoid difficult postflop-situations. You are ahead AK/AQ, but he might also has hands like 88 and sometimes weird AA.

Regs usually don't play AA like this, because there are more profitable ways for them, but given the odds and the fact that 77 gets only 46% equity even against 15% range, I would fold without thinking.
