BN is tight overall but calling with broadways and suited connectors a bit too much.
Preflop

Hero is UTG with

I was mostly playing TAG and the raise here is obviously a steal decided to exploit my image and also have less opponents...BN has raised me all in before and according to my reads i was kind of sure he is again holding high connectors yet again

How can this be a final stage of anything? Is this a sit and go? You need to post more specific information about the hand if you want to get any meaningful answer.
gbeer, why are you so aggressive with your response, I have never played an mtt where the mid/later stages are 80/160 blinds. Anyway if this is later stages is there ICM to consider? If so there are a number of stacks who are shorter than you. Even in terms of pure chip ev. If you suspect villain is overly aggressive would it not be better to wait for a better spot and just open fold 22 utg. As played I would just fold to the jam. You are only flipping against any two and crushed vs all other pairs. You still have enough stack left to wait for a better spot
22 Is very close open UTG with +/- 15BB.
I fold 22 or all in.
Fold Preflop.
15bb is more like 44+ jam as far as pp goes. Opening serves no purpose whatsoever.
