shortie has been on tilt, I expect hes shoving wide here. The bigstack has been quite LAG. To be honest I misread the amount the bigstack had left, so Im thinking the iso shove is probably quite spewy on my part. Am I better just flatting here pre?

You have no fold equity so I think you should just fold.
Never just flat here with AQ. That would be the biggest mistake you can do I think.

im not sure if I agree that folding s optimal here... granted calling doesnt inspire me either, and we certainly can afford to fold.

I suppose I have to consider that the shorty may have one or two of my outs, but I dunno... this seems like an odd spot to me, and folding is obv the safe line. Im sure there is some way to eek out some value from this, but im not sure how :(.

If you really think you are ahead of the big stack then just push. However even if he is loose I can't see him have a very loose range here. He prob has a medium pair or a big ace and he is making it clear that he is committed. I think with his worse hands he would only flat here (like broadways and small pairs) and he prob would fold them if someone pushes behind with a big stack.
But as I already said I think just calling here is very very bad with your hand (and probably with any hand actually).
