About LinkBacksHi guys,
Would like your opinion on what I should've done here..
2750 people in tourney. There was about 150 people left. BB was 1000 and I was sitting on the dealer button with Pocket 2s. My luck was running out, did not catch any cards for quite a few hands. Cutoff seat raised to 2000. Small blind and big blind were really tight players so I figured they would fold and they did. But I pushed all in with my 2s and cutoff seat called. He had 88 and I lost. Did I play this correctly or should I have waited for a better hand?

Stack sizes?
Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R
KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

If effective stacks were 8-15,000 you played fine.
If they were 100,000 you didn't.

I was definitely short stacked. I want to say I had maybe 7-8 thousand. He had a lot more than me, not sure exactly how much. So considering this...I played it correctly? Thanks guys!

Being the person that pushes all in>>>calling an all in
Previously thought to be sane.

If your stack is small enough that you think CO is priced in to call your shove every time, I'd just fold. 22 is just never ahead of anything. If you have like 9k-20k, it's a pretty standard shove.

In this situation OP is basically calling if he has 7-8bb since original raiser is rarely going to fold.
