Replay this hand on Upswing Poker

UTG: 1,368 (9 bb)
MP: 940 (6 bb)
CO: 3,285 (22 bb)
BU (Hero): 1,601 (11 bb)
SB: 3,558 (24 bb)
BB: 2,748 (18 bb)

Pre-Flop: (225) Hero is BTN with K Q
UTG calls 150, 1 fold, CO calls 150, Hero raises to 1,601 (all-in), 2 players fold, UTG calls 1,218 (all-in), 1 fold

Flop: (3,111) 6 A 2 (2 players, 2 all-in)

Turn: (3,111) 8 (2 players, 2 all-in)

River: (3,111) 7 (2 players, 2 all-in)

Total pot: 3,111

Showdown:
BU (Hero) shows K Q (high card, Ace)
(Equity - Pre-Flop: 40%, Flop: 3%, Turn: 0%, River: 0%)

UTG shows A J (a pair of Aces)
(Equity - Pre-Flop: 60%, Flop: 97%, Turn: 100%, River: 100%)

UTG wins 3,111

I am not sure if shove here is a right play when UTG opens 1bb a CO calls.

Standard shove and only reason to not do that is if you have read that UTG is trapping most of time here. I would assume you have lot of fold equity and even if someone call KQ often has lot of equity and sometimes even some hands you dominate could be calling.

What do you don’t understand about this hand or explanation of ghaleon?
For me it’s clear as water and I would play the hand the same.
