This is another hand from a $6 turbo satelite to the $26 Ticket Frenzy. i find myself in this spot quite often, I am on the BTN with 22 and there is a 3X open to 150. my thinking here is that I am not deep enough to call the open. I also don't think I should be 3 betting here with 33BB. Is my thinking wrong here, should I be set mining and trying to hit the 2? Thanks again,

Flat or lay it down. To early to start making moves. I am not a big fan of pocket douches in any position.

you are correct in your thinking that you should not be calling or 3betting. but the reason you shouldn't be 3betting isn't realling that you have 33BB, but rather that you seem to have no info on the opener and 22 really isn't the greatest hand to 3bet light with.

thanks all, I ended up folding. I just felt I wasnt deep enough to set mine. And like you said Hagbard, i think 22 are not the hand i want to 3 bet light with here.
