55 is still long way to go before the bubble. I think 33 is a shove here from CO.

The reason i ask is because i had 15 bigblinds and i could reach to the money without shoving this hand

Can't you raise-evaluate or raise-fold here? a min raise should also do I think… What does a shove do here that a 2.5BB raise doesnt? The stacks behind you are sufficiently deep and 15BB is not a big deal for them. Also, a raise miiight sound a bit more strong despite coming from an unopened pot in the cutoff, purely based on your stack size.

A shove should/could/would (maybe) get some folds from A6o and worse, QTs, QJo, KTo, KJo kinda hands and sometimes pairs 66 and below. These are the kind of hands a bigstack like the BB will otherwise often reshove when facing a min open from the CO. If he calls correctly he will not fold his Ax and pairs, but in a $4.40 tourney you rarely see correct calling-ranges.
I prefere shoving here all day.

I agree with sen , this is a easy shove. As for you saying that you think you could reach the bubble by folding your hand here is incorrect logic , you could get dealt AA the very next hand and bust out before the bubble against a hand like J2o. In poker you should be making to look profitable descions, also wehn you shove here it don't matter how wide their calling ranges are , you may also get hands that have decent equity against your hand to fold , which is always a good thing 🙂
