Also, at the 2nd hand, you have about a 30% equity in this tournament... even if you double through the big stack you only increase to 32% equity. You do NOT want to play anything in this spot unless you're sure to win because you're not increasing your equity enough.
Note: In the hand you went broke with.
Folding leaves you with: 27.6% equity
Doubling up leaves you with: 31.3% equity
You are only increasing your equity by 3.7% and you're risking your tournament life on a hand that is less than a 58% favorite against a purely random hand. You're going to lose 42% of the time if he'll call you with ATC... and more often if he's calling with reasonable hands. Since you're not increasing your equity much and the other player is going to be all-in on the next hand, this was a questionable shove.
If you had folded here, and the big stack had folded to the short-stack on the next hand, that would have been suspicious. This is a spot when folding would have been slightly better. This short, you're subject to luck no matter what but it would increase your chances of winning more money.
