Default 4/180, 22 in the BB vs button raise

Now, before reading this, there is a really critical read here. Not only is button a fairly lag player, but also, just lost a huge amount of his stack, going from a top stack to below average, and that was last hand. I know that if i go all in, he is calling with ATC pretty much, but 22 is a favorite vs a rdm hand.... your call 2p2 forums.

I just fold it. I'm not one to stick on a stack but I'd like a hand that at least dominates something in his range if I know he's calling a push here super wide here. Yea we're aheard of J5s but not by much. I'd like calling either b/c he's gonna play aggro and we'll be oop.

Precisely because of your read you should fold. Since you know you have zero FE, why would you gambool 50% of your stack when you are in good shape chip-wise??? You are at best 50/50 and at worst 20/80. 22 AI sucks without FE.

I agree. If you know that he will call your shove with ATC, you should fold this PF. Or do something that might increase your FE. Like a stop n go (not sure if stack sizes are right for one though).
