Default Lay down AQ on the bubble?

For once I had a read on a player. The pusher in this hand had pushed the previous hand with Q9o and run into QQ from the BB. I smelt desperation and overpushed. Well, sometimes desperate people have hands.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) converter

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

<font color="#C00000">UTG (t550)</font>
<font color="#C00000">Hero (t1255)</font>
SB (t3030)
BB (t5165)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: (t300) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Turn: (t300) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

River: (t300) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Final Pot: t300

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
UTG has Kh Kc (three of a kind, kings).
Hero has Qh As (two pair, aces and queens).
Outcome: UTG wins t300. </font>

So, I suppose my question is, who lays this down and why? Looking at the blind sizes the BB almost has to call here. I might think citanul is humorless and arrogant but I am also starting to come around to his way of thinking about when to call.

I wouldn't fold. The question would be between calling and pushing. I think I would call and let BB in to take another chance at busting short stack and getting me ITM.
