A question about a hand
Hi guys... I'd like to know your opinion about this hand.
Did I play it well, almost well, almost bad or completely bad?
Thanks to everyone.

yeah your M is less than 3, you should be shipping a VERY wide range tbh. Even though the pot is limped, 22 is more than enough to get it in with. Sure the limper's stats might be useful but youve got no real time to wait for a better spot imo.
Thanks, mates. Unfortunately I don't use Poker Tracker or other HUD tools, so I didn't know if the limper was going to fold his hand. By the way, that hand ended up with the BB calling and showing AJ, coinflipping, catching a J on the river and busting me out. The point was that I think that 22 is not so strong and maybe it was better for me to push 3 rounds later, when UTG. Anyway, it was really close.
Its hard to say, but im probably shipping it too. It depends on the guy utg. Has he been limpn alot? If so then insta push. If he has a mediocre hand he probably wont call, seeing as u could still put a nice dent in his stack, leaving him having to get aggressive and all in.
Your decision is definitely push fold with less than 10bb, however your not really in a rush to get it in yet. You still have fold equity with 4bbs. The problem with shoving the 2's here is that the early limper will most likely call and you are flipping or being dominated. I don't think you really have much fold equity against him, so I would fold. If on the other hand it had folded around to you I would open shove.
I think it depends on the tendencies of the early position limper. You definitely need to gamble with less than 7bb. I'm usually very cautious at this point in the tourney, especially when I'm not initiating the action. Players can get a little 'trappy' too...limping in from early position with 3 short stacks still to act is a little suspect, but like I said-depends on his tendencies. What's his VPIP? Have you seen him limp in and fold to a raise?
