Default AQ - tough bubble call decision at the 20+2

Can I get away from this at the 22s preflop? The big overbet looked like the big stack didn't want a call. But then again, he could be being tricky and hoping someone comes over the top. I thought for a long time, and pushed. He called and showed AQo. I think I made a big mistake here.

I think you made a huge mistake here as well. You should have called and pushed any flop. :P (jk)

I don't have any resources in front of me, but you probably have to be a ~2:1 favorite to get all of the money in here. AQs isn't that big of a favorite...even against random cards. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

How are you getting the 2:1 number? Is it from ICM, or is there other reasons due to being on the bubble ?
