Seems like you're shoving kinda light here. You've got 30BB. I get that you're the button and figure to try get head's up, but with both the blinds able to bust you out, I would wait for a different spot. Did you have reads on the blinds that they would fold to your shove more often than call?

Ill be honest, Im the type of player that goes for the big cash, I rarely just sneak into the money, here I thought was a good chance to get HU and get my stack up there. Plus its a situation where I either push or fold here as $4000 is 30% of my stack, im not gonna put it in there then fold to a push by one of the blinds. The first AQ call is ok, but I think the second one is just an awful call. Also I only had 22BB which really isnt that much to play with, With that many BB your play is very limited.
