Pretty poor if you fold here. You are close to flipping versus an overpair, if not the slight favorite. He could be doing this with an inferior flush draw, a straight draw, an overpair, an inferior eight, many things. Who knows, I've seen pocket 7s make this type of play.
So that's an automatic call in my book. Hope it turned out ok, I'll read the rest of the thread now.
