Eh, it's kind of hard to push with a middle pair. I would have dumped it at the re-raise, but I wouldn't say pushing was that bad of a play, either. In 27s, you kind of need to get chips early, so if your bankroll can stand the gamble, you can consider a push like that, but it's still not a great idea. It's very unlikely that he would reraise with a low pair. There's a chance he had a higher pair, and best-case-scenerio (which actually happened) is a coinflip. Not exactly great odds to get your money in...
EDIT: Oh, I thought that the blinds were at 20, not 30. Min-raise there is a bad idea. I would have gone at least 4-5BB.

i'd have folded here due to the size of the blinds. theres no pressure to call this re-raise at this stage. ur a coinflip at best or a 4-1 underdog. you're object at this blind level should'nt be to coinflip but to see flops instead.

I wouldn't have pushed all in personally, I'd have called.

Why is calling not acceptable there? Or is it, but just not advised?

The opening min-raise is bad. What is the point of that raise? You're leaving yourself very open to the re-raise when you min-raise. Had you bet 90-120 you may not have been re-raised to begin with. I would actually prefer to limp a hand like 1010 from early position rather than min-raising.
I don't mind the pre-flop shove that much. You had the best hand and went with hit, but like noted before, it's not a very good play. You're likely only getting called by hands that either have you 4-1 or are coin flips with you. In the case that you're against 2 overs, you should be trying to just see the flop. Flop comes J high, you pot it, and the AK likely gives up his hand. Now you accumulated some chips and avoided the big all in.
