What to do???

Ok this is a £5.50 dym, The short stack shoves, I was going to call or move all in untill the chip leader gets involved by calling.  In a normal tourny where you play for the win Id instantly go all in but being a dym I really wasnt sure what the correct move would be.  Npbody had been eliminated at this point, and it was quite a tight game for a low level dym.

Ok I know you will say raise first, I think I only called as the chip leader had already called, think I worry about that to much in these games. 

But anyway I havent raised but what should i do now??

    As good a hand as it is it's a fold.
    Your risking more than 10 big blinds to a shove + a call your an underdog to any pocket pair plus your in a multiway pot pick a better spot.

    P.S. raise lol.

    if you raise pre/shove the big stack folds limping with ak is a bad play.but after the limp and the shove call its a fold for me.

    Ye I agree you should never be flat calling pre flop... seems it saved you though as soon as the shove hits and the call you are in bad shape so have to fold.

    At these stakes and looking at the hand i would definately shove, the 1st AI means little with 10 BB and imo if you shove and the chip leader calls u will be infront of his range 7/10 times!!!

    Im the only one on that side of the FENCE at the moment tho :) Hope you SNAP called !!
