Default confusing hand in bubble.

i have 22 in BB. blinds 150/300. its bubble and sb (chip leader ) pushes. i have 800 more to call. is this a call or a fold and push any 2 next chance i get? what is 22 vs any 2? im guessing slight underdog tossup at BEST.

stacks were 1200, 1300, 4000 (sb), and me with 1100(sb).

i post blind and have 800 more left to make the call on sb push.

I'd fold. I'd rather push any 2 next time it's folded to me.

22 is a 49-51 dog to a random hand

I would call...right now you're in a dog fight for 3rd
but if you double up, you have a good shot at 1st.

Calling 800 to win 2200, need to win only 36% of the time
for calling to be +EV.

Call, and I don't think its close.

Fold. This is an easy decision if you look at it with the ICM - try it out.

That is chip EV though. best case scenario he is a slight favorite (though his chances of the dude having a higher pair are really small). I prefer pusing a random hand next time though.

What are the stacks, really? Your numbers add up to 7600.
