You're pot-committed. You only had to call $6.75 to win $37.10 (5.5:1). You're behind (14:1 dog), but he's loose. He could be making this play with KQ, maybe KT. I think you were correct in calling.

He was drawing to 2 outs and he got lucky. The villain made the mistakes in this hand (not you). He got lucky this time, but you'll get your money back from him soon enough.
