Taking a look at stack sizes I figured any raise and C-bet would just about pot commit me so I went for the push and maximum FE.

So yeah easy muck. 99-1010 might be more debatable.

After seeing showdown i really hate the EP limp with 22. I woudln't mind a raise had he been in CO/BTN given the table is full of TAG players. I think even a raise from ep w/ 22 is >>>>>than limping here since you can't profitably limp/call to set mine at bb50 with this stack size. But it's a easy open fold regardless of position for me personally. The flop bet is fine IMO since it's HU vs bb. c/c by Majin looks fine. I would prob give up on the turn if i was Majin , and i am definitly not calling a river bet , what can we possible beat that limp-bets 3 streets. I can't tell the bet sizes in relation to the pot though either just reading the raw HH which kinda sucks so i can't really comment on that.

After that being said once he shoved i was pretty sure i was dominated but i don't see any alternative option after putting in over 1/3 of my stack. I'm almost positive just shoving is +EV vs his range but is kinda thin when he only calls with hands that crush me , so by re raising i give him a chance to make a mistake like reshove AK/JJ tho the chance is slim since he knows I'm pretty tight and is a better/more experienced player than me i figured it would be more EV to re raise/call.

lol speak of the devil, I guess he's commited, if he isn't stacking off pre it will
be hard to find a flop where he will.

As I said earlier, ask yourself what flops you want to see with KJs against a tight UTG range, then ask how often you'll get those flops.

I'm trying to figure this one out especially, I mean I know his range should be fairly slim, but I'm having a hard time not putting him on a king when he raises you there...
