I would've done the same (but I'm not exactly experienced...). With blinds that size it's push or fold, and he'll need a PP or Ax to have the edge (which he won't the majority of the time. I'm guessing this time he had Ax?

With BB of 500 and a stack of 2300, this was one of your last chances to exert any pressure at all. While KQ is behind any A and any pair, pushing all in is very reasonable here. If called, you should have at least a 40% chance to win, unless you are dominated.

BB had A3. I am just getting fedup with my poor results lately due to the crapshooting bubbleplay in these sngs.
