Down to 3 players the blinds usually are so high, that you don't have room for a reraise. So a push is the correct play. You were 70 to 30 when the chips went in.

U just got riverraped. Maybe he would have folded postflop or a second barrel on the turn if its a dry board and his AK was not suited. Unless he overrates AK so much and keeps chasing an A outer Nothing U can do about it.

i think AK(o) is the most overrated possible hand.every tournament or sng i see all-in´s in the first levels with this hand and they wonder if they get busted....

Is a correct play, was only a bad beat, KK are the second best hole cards and AK are only two cards (only 33% of the hands there is a A or a K in the board), the equity of your hand are 69% and he has got only 3 outs (the 3 A). Was only bad luck.
