40% rule doesn't quite apply here, but close.

Push, limp or raise?

Given that I play at a lower level than you I would push here. Somebody correct me so I can correct myself. Level 4 and on is the only level I would push such a hand. I guess the only bad thing is that if you're called you are beat.

WRONG. That might be the most overused saying in poker. I 4 table the $22s. If you're called, you have a pretty good chance of being ahead. 88+ will be able to justify calling you, while anything from A8s+ will be able to do the same. Not everyone understands late-game play.

Pushing is better than raising 300 and calling a push. I think this shows too much strength (raising most of your stack) , and you're looking to get called by a bad hand.

So : PUSH PUSH PUSH.
