Default Re: a DERB hand

I haven't read all the responses but I hate how the hijack played this. 22 in the hijack sucks in a heads ups or battle for the blinds. I mean you're better off with 89 as you're going to make a continuation bet regardless and you'll get the fold if he misses with 22 or air. You'll hit better draws pairs and etc. Plus 22 sucks against a player like DERB

If you get 3 bet with 22 well I would hope with position you'd cap it and take control for only a SB which is a bargain.

to me 22 is the worst hand in this situation against this player. Gives you just enough to stick around but really it's not enough
