BB - BB (T73,677)

Preflop: (T3,900, 8 players) Hero is MP with A♠ Q♣
2 folds, Hero raises to T4,500, MP2 calls T4,500, 1 fold, BTN raises to T57,068 (all-in), 2 folds, Hero?

31 BB is big shove and more than half of my stack. But this player is playing fairly LAG. I wonder what hands he is squeeze shoving that I am ahead of? Would he do this with AJ? AT? KQ? At the time I thought probably not, but given his stats, I am not sure if fold is best here.

Spoiler

2 folds, Uncalled bet of T52,568 returned to BTN

Total Pot: T17,400

BTN wins T17,400

He looks aggressive for sure and I expect he could think that you are the only player that would call a shove here. I expect he can easy shove almost any pair and indeed hands like AJ and KQ and I don’t think an over shove would be too bad here.
