If the question is was the push correct, then the answer is YES.

With a pot of t1350 and your stack at only t2888 with the table folding to you on the btn its an easy push.

[Poker Orifice]

EZ shove here (if that is your question?.... is it your question?? I mean your name was "Ihavequestions").
OTB (on the button with <5bb's atc's is actually a +EV push). If villain on BB will be priced in to make the call then you will want to tighten up a bit (but not much at all). To give you a better idea here, w 6bb OTB, Top60% of hands is considered +EV push, 8bb from CO is Top 28.5% (22+.A2+,KTo+,K4s+,Q7+,Q5s+........ 76s is +EV push.

Villain's call here...

[Poker Orifice]

Villain is getting ~1.852 to 1 on the call here, which translates to meaning they'd need to have greater than 35% equity.
With A3o vs. HERO's shoving range
even if villain was playing too tight here & only shoving Top40%, villain has 46% equity which makes it an easy call (even if it's for his tourney life).

[Poker Orifice]

Generally speaking if you're getting 2:1 on the call, it is profitable to call with Top40%.
2.1:1 call with trashy hands as well (but kinda nice... ie. 74s).
2.5:1 call with any two cards
