    now before you say anything i was playing very tight and had the perfect table image, i cannot for the life of me see how he thinks im going to re-raise him all in with my 5 9, especially at $20 level i just cant seem to get rid of these players.

    You had just under 11BB and there are antes. Either shove or fold. Minraising is dumb especially with a hand this weak. You want maximum fold equity with this hand because you're flipping against most hands and crushed by any pair. 22 is not strong just because it's a pair.

    Also, you have no idea of knowing if anybody even pays attention to table image. You're overthinking and trying to be too fancy.
