Do you fold here? Also does the fact that there are 2 people in the pot and will be getting 2 to 1 with hopefully 2 overs make you lean to call?

I think i'd call here. Most likly i think your against atleast 1 underpair and maybe a lower ace. Also, if you call and lose you still have enough chips to make some steals. IF you call and win you will gain alot more chips and be able to make more steals and set yourself up for a high place itm.

I think I might could find a fold here, but it's close. I'm not particularly worried about AA or KK, though it obviously is a possibility. At the $22s though, you'll see worse hands enough so that a call isn't horrible. But your stack, compared to the blinds, is such that you aren't desparate. You can probably find better / safer spots to accumulate chips.
