Sorry about the format having issues with Lock and HH converter, this is the best I could get. This is headsup for a tournament win. The villian was loose preflop and would call to see a flop a lot. He also overplayed >= AT, post if he did not hit. I started being really aggressive with a few players left when I realized people folded unless they had a monster, this is how I was able to battle back to get to this hand. Do you think my shove was overly aggressive? How would you have played it? I shoved thinking I would take it down right there, but if called I had the straight draw going for me. I tend to be aggressive when playing headsup because of the hours I spent to get there, I just want it to be over with.

I just fold with the villains lead, with 30+bb you have plenty of time to find a better spot. The fact he overbet pot was telling you he wasn't going any where…feels like 2 pair or something, with you re raising all in on flop he is priced in at that point and I would pick a better spot and avoid such a high variance spot. If you want to do anything pre, just raise in position when he completed blind vs blind and take control of the pot from the jump.
I don't like his raise sizing but I don't think I can fold here as it is heads up and you have hit the board pretty hard in a limped pot. Even though you have outs, I don't really like the semi-bluff shove as you are scaring away any hands you are beating and if you are behind any hand he calls with, I think the best you can hope for with a shove is for him to fold a better 7 or the 8. So I think I call here and evaluate the turn. If we don't improve and he overbets again then I will note it and fold. You have lost a decent chuck of your stack but have alomost 30bbs and are not far behind. If I make 2 pair, 3 of a kind or the straight then I am check-raising the turn.

Thanks for the input guys. I should have put that it was for the tournament win the topic, probably would have got more feedback. My weakness is I am real spazzy at the final table and just want to be done after hours of play.
