Going off on a tangent slightly. While I'm paraphrasing the view of a highly respected online player, basically: Online poker is a game of (but not isolated to) trends. It is up to a player to pick up on these trends, and basically do they opposite of them/take advantage of them.
Imo, one of the more prevalent trends atm (at least for low limit SnGs) is for players to push light into the
BB when around the 10BB mark. As a consequence of this, the calling range of the
BB has greatly widened in these circumstances.
I fold the 22 and KQ. I think the EV for these moves comes mainly from the FE of open-pushing. Since this FE, imo, has been greatly reduced, I no longer see it as a +Ev move. You can build a case for limping the 22, but you really aren't getting set-mining odds, and the amount of times the
BB will raise after a limp negates any set-mining value you may have had.
I think I push the AA, but depending on reads, the standard raise probably isn't bad.
