Re: Being critisized got me thinking
If he didn't want you playing pocket 2s, he should have raised. If I were you, I'd either raise 3-5x the Big Blind, or just limp in. IMO, most of the value of small pocket pairs comes from hitting your set and busting a larger size stack. The 3-5x raise would be more of a steal attempt, and I would have folded to a large re-raise in that case. Limping in lets you get out of the hand cheaply, because if you don't hit your set, there will be overcards (duh) to your 2s. I'd do either/or, but not just raise the minimum.
