Default 88 late in tournament

82 out of 2800 players left in PartyPoker 500k Guaranteed. I have a tight image and almost everyone at the table is a thinking player...no real donks as far as I've seen (except maybe me).

UTG+1 (t249530)
MP1 (t166192)
Hero (t138968)
MP3 (t96601)
CO (t267963)
Button (t177866)
SB (t247591)
BB (t136341)
UTG (t99752)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

Yes she is. Yes I do go to UMD (college park). This was not intended to be a bad beat post. My question was if the all in was correct. I think a limp or min-raise could have been better but wanted a second opinion.

You have an M of about 7. This is one of those situations that is very hard to get away from. Obviously, you want to play this hand. raising to 36k gives you pretty much an automatic call when Villian pushes for 60K more. Only way I see you avoiding this is to be calling in EP, but this still puts you in a tough position if Villian pushes. Maybe you can hope he thinks you are going for a limp raise so you can see a flop? Dunno, I think your play is near standard given your M.
