Preflop
Its fine to open 22 when this deep.

Flop
Some players like to do a lot of check-raising on paired boards, because they know, its difficult for their opponent to have a strong hand on such a board. For that reason we dont want to do to much bet-folding on paired boards, unless we know the opponent is very straight forward and will only raise, when he actually has it. In this case you did not have such information, and this is not a hand, we want to play a big pot with. So for me the best play is to check back and take the play away from them. Sure you run the risk of getting drawn out on, but this hand is not really strong enough to protect. Even you were the preflop raiser, most of the value from playing 22 comes from the chance of hitting a set and winning a big pot.

Turn
Now its even less likely, he has a T, so what is he really representing here? He most likely has a bluff, but if he is ahead, you are now drawing dead, and you are most likely going to face a big river bet as well. So as played I agree with giving up and letting him have it.

Results
I think, there is a high chance, you got outplayed here, and the way to avoid it is to check back the flop. If you had checked back the flop, you can call a turn bet on this runout and possibly even call a river bet as well and snap off some bluffs.
