Your opponent most likely has over cards. So with 22, you're pretty much in a coin flip. If you call, you lose half the time, and take 20% of the prize money. If you win, you get about a 37% share (according to ICM). This gives you an EV of about 28.525% of the prize pool. If you fold, you get a 28.45% of the prize pool (again by ICM). This is definitely a close one.

I don't think calling is a bad play here. If you fold, you're left with 1750 and the big stack is getting 2:1 odds to call your push from the button next hand, so you won't get too much fold equity there.
