As soon as you have such a hand the blind are low first check if JMT with 30000 chips wants to watch the blind steal for 2 rounds and roll in with JQ, A3, A4, QJ, KA, and then good luck.

We always take into account the smaller stack in a heads up situations post flop , we call that ''effective stack'' . You didn't give us any information about the blinds but I guess you are talking somewhere between 5bb-20 bbs . The hands you are giving us could easily be a defend in the BB but also they are good candidates for 3bet / 3bet jams but your question is super general. Before any action you should take into account:
-if the open raiser has folding equity
-stage of the tournament - I mean if you have ICM considerations in order to play wider or tighter.

All in.

It's all in and hope to hit your cards, you being short stack can't be otherwise
