Default Pocket 2\'s ITM with even stacks

All three of us played tight and aggressive poker and whenever our cards had been shown (due to someone calling an all-in) they were good.

So what do you do here with 22 in a $22?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (3 handed) converter

Button (t2410)
Hero (t2700)
BB (t2890)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

I pushed and I know for sure that this is much better than folding - what I'm not sure about is if there was a better play.

Looking back on it I think a min-raise would have been better... The reason I say that is because I have noticed that a min-raise from an aggressive tight player often means a monster hoping for a call or re-raise and it gives me a way out if I get reraised...

I know min-raising is everybody's favorite move on 2+2 so I'm sure every response will be MIIIIIIIN RAIIIIIIISE...
