short stacking is not my specialty but I think you have to stick it in here... you get lots of crazy calls, at least you made the virtual nuts.
My normal game is NL50 since last month. But I want to clear my bonus on AP as fast as possible So I play NL100 but only 50BB, for BR-Management reasons.

playing only 50BBs this is a no brainer shove pf. You have no room to fold and you have not enough chips to do anything else. i am not a fan of playing like this at all. you have a top 5 hand what are you gonna wait for AA. stick em in.

if you were deep stacked i can make arguements for laying this down preflop unless you're playing them for set value... in which case have @ itas short as you are though, just ship it in the second he makes it 21... you probably only have 2 outs though, i dont see people 4 betting preflop very often w/ A Q... methinks you cracked aces or kings on this one...

This was really a weird hand. After he called-reraised. I was 80% sure he had AA/KK. But for some reason I thought it could be AK. And I couldn't lay it down, giving our stacksizes.But I think my call was the worst part of it. I thought I have to push or fold. But I called... Still don't know why. Prolly I thought that if it is AK I want to see the flop and whether a A or a K flops. That is really the down side of playing 50BB. You can't fold it for stacksizes but you shouldn't play it giving the action.
