    Yes. If you give the CO a 25% opening range, and a calling range of 66+ AJ+ ATs (we're 34.5% vs this), and the blinds overcalling ranges of TT+ AK (we're 29.8% vs this)

    10% we get it in with 29.8% equity, lose an average of 3300 chips
    29% we get it in with 34.5% equity, lose an average of 2600 chips
    61% we take down the pot and win 2250 chips

    Overall it comes out to +300 chips, as a general rule I don't pass up edges this big. It's possible that in a $1 tournament, people aren't stealing the blinds as much, and aren't folding enough to all-ins, so then you can fold 22 here.

    Why just call here? You would have to give villain a TON of respect to lay this down. You cant call being its over a 10th of your stack. Your push fold IMO and in a $1 and AI every time.
