5 folds, Hero bets t1800, Button raises to t4000, 2 folds, Hero 4bet shoves?,

Ok so this guy had been 3betting in a few pots before this hand, also raising on the shortstackers, so i kind of figure here that he is trying to abuse the bubble, or that was the feeling i had at the time.

So i pick up AJ in the CO, standard raise for me. I went in with the preflop plan to jam preflop if the bigger stack tried any nonsense. I don't care if i bubble and i'm always aiming for first. Basic line check (kind of gave away that i 4bet shoved here) as i really don't know if this is a solid play to shove in 30ish BB here.

He was 3betting 12% over a smallish sample(50-70 hands), running a VPIP of 35ish and PFR or 28ish.

Sorry, it wasn't exactly the bubble here, was around 377 people left and 360 get paid.
