True. He wasn't calling off all his chips there. But the comments about this being a race *at best* still apply, no? I don't think I make this call.

The upside of 22 is that while it's often a slight dog and never a big favorite, it's relatively rarely a huge dog. Given the payout structure and how ZJ will still have an effective stack if he calls and loses, I think ZeeJustin's call there is entirely reasonable.

It's a huge dog whenever it is up against a bigger pair. So I'm not sure if I buy the *relatively rarely* comment. I do agree that it doesn't put a huge dent in his stack, but it doesn't give him a big lift if he wins either.

ZJ's hand has absolutely nothing to do with the hand discussed here.
