Default 25NL, flopped two pairs against a raise

Villain is 14/1/1 for 557 hands. I don't like these 1 & 1. And he doesn't like me (old story). So i think fold is not so bad?

His stats are weird (14/1). Not really sure what this means, could he be completing JJ from the SB??

Anyways I think folding is OK here

Fold is great against unknown... against someone who "doesn't like me"... not so quick with 2 pair from unraised BB.

I took his stack about a week ago with KK vs his QQ all-in pf, he got really mad and told me I was a slavic swine and from then on he said he was going to drag time on intentionally (he sat to my right and every time when he was about to post a blind or just simply react, he took a sh*tload of time to do it). And after that there was something else I think, can't really remember. But it could be that it has nothing to do with this.

Default The Nuts

I probably would put him on a nut flush draw or three duces. Folding is definately ok because the risk isn't worth the reward as others said. If your rolled good enough I would call just to see what the turn would come, maybe none spade and he checks or perhaps another running card to his striaght, which I doubt he has anyways. I say hes on the nut flush draw and hates you or has a set of duces. Seeing as I didnt see him raise preflop, I would say pocket jacks are unlikely, especially if he is reraising you 9 bucks. Hes just mad that his QQ's got cracked by your KK and is looking for revenge to call you more names. I would fold and type in the chat box, lol, nice bet donk.

he's got J decent/mid kicker. maybe even nice pockets and was hoping to trap you. We just hope their not J's (QQ would be great!) I get it all in against the nemesis. Reason I do this. I dont get heated so even if he draws lucky and wins (or was ahead the whole time), I play the next hand like nothing happened. He calls with QQ or AJ and the psycho goes ballistic. For those that measure reward solely monetarily, maybe they're right. The way I see it, reward > risk because I'm a prick.

Wouldn’t you love to know he did this when the connection dropped:
