Can I have comments on this hand please, dubious pot odds call?

I am just getting a view on this, was my move a bad one?

I feel the JK guy is pot committed and has to call. He is flipping against a lot of your range given your shove and stack size. I"m sure he"s not happy to call but feels compelled to.
If player did any thing wrong it was not shoving in the first place.
As it played out...standard small stacks with big blind type hand.
Your move was not bad as you were short stacked and couldn"t wait all day for a better hand (or to be first in). By reraising you are only worried about QQ+ and AK there is a lot of his range that you are beating or flipping with so you have to go with it.
If you did anything wrong, it was thinking that the guy might fold

This is why I don"t play online - all this thinking and only 20 seconds. I agree 3,000 isn"t a lot with the blinds at 150/300, but he"ll have a better chance of winning a seat with 10 big blinds than if he calls as a 3/1 dog and busts out. If he felt he would defo win a seat if he called and won, it"s case of are my chances of winning a seat better than 25% if I fold and play on with 10xBB.
I still think I"d have folded, but I"m not surprised he called.

Nope - your move was spot on.... but I also happen to think his call was ok too. He got lucky - that"s poker.
