1st time poster- about time I posted here

120 left in the $150 nightly 100K on stars. I've Ninja'd my way here, been pretty card dead but got a double up about an orbit before hand shoving over a button open with Ac8c and holding against JQ. Aside from that in a couple orbits i think i had 2 LP steal shoves. The villain in this hand , along with the guy to his left has been opening a good few pots, esp from early position. He is a SuperNova with over $500,000 prizemoney on Stars (OPR) and over $100K profit. His Raises were getting through as play tightened approaching bubble. I think his EP opening range had a lot of stuff like KJ, KQ, low pairs, high connectors. I thought my image was of a tight shortie who wasnt going to do anything stupid approaching the bubble.
Given the above, and considering stack sizes, is my move here suicide, or is he never opening with a hand he will fold to a 13BB stack?

EDIT: have a feeling i overthought and butchered this myself, but he made a call i didnt feel was standard. What range of hands woul you call my shove with given above info?

i'm never folding if i'm him. If he folds, he is pure spew and would be a barely winning/losing player.

I think you just need to wait for a decent hand here...you have plenty of chips...no need to rush it mostly because he's not folding a lot and your hand just doesn't play that well.
