Default Re: Overs- Worth building a side pot?

I really don't see how you can call that river bet..it looks like a blocking bet, but everything he is blocking with is beating you. So I would say if you want to fight for the pot, you should raise his blocking bet and represent the seven...you've played like you had it up til now. If you can bluff villain out of the pot, you win the side pot, and you might also have the short stack beat and drag the whole pot. It's risky though..will villain fold an overpair or will he make the crying call? Maybe villain even has QQ.

To give a Harrington'esque verdict, I think I'd fold here 60% of the time, call 15% of the time because of the size of the bet in relation to the whole pot ..I guess villain could have missed a flush draw or have somthing like 99/88 and semi-bluff raise 25% of the time.
