Instacall. If he has Jacks, he has Jacks, but he sure as hell isn't folding sevens here.

Absolutely. He's short stacked so could be playing with anything. pocket 9's is a strong hand in a heads up situation. Also the added equity of knocking him out and making the money make this an automatic call.

What did you do? How did it pan out - just curious.

Given your luck, I guess having 20% equity yet losing qualifies as a bad beat

Anyways the call you made was good. You get about 2:1 pot odds so whenever he has overcards you win.

I think you made the right call, but getting beat like that is the name of the game. I bet you've done the same thing to plenty of people. It is just a continuous circle..
