Hand 2, Raiser is screaming A-x to me.

What? How do you hear this. Limping with Ax is more likely than limping with a pair? And now he plays back at BB for half his own stack with nada? Or does he have exactly A5? I don't get it...

I haven't played 22s in while, so I'm not really sure. At higher levels, this min raise is really scary...and I'd be concerned about 22-55, 77-TT.

Ax? Sure, it's possible, but I don't see why he'd raise with that, unless he had A4.

I think folding is ok, depending on your opinion on the villian.

Of course, the preflop limp is awful. I'd probably just push preflop.

Like Phil said, the min-raise does look fishy. It seems to me more of a set then A-X. I think you can wait for a better spot then gamble on an overpair and gutshot straight draw, when faced with a bet and raise for 1/2 your stack.

But it would be nice if reads were given, its very read dependant.
