Pocket deuces aren't good at all for this. You're either a huge dog, or a slight favorite. I'd rather be pushing something like 78 and hope that I have 2 live cards.

I see this sort of quote all the time, but 22 is a much better hand than 87s in a shove-fest. For instance, you have roughly 45% and 37% equity, respectively, versus top 25% (when called).

Also I think twos preform even better than 78 against an even wider range of semi crappy hands, if you're very likely to be called (because they will be up against even less pairs).
