Re: Lay down 99 here?
I think it's a pretty easy call, but not necessarily because you're chances of 2nd improve dramatically (they do, but that's a secondary consideration). You have to factor in the times where the other short stack won't bust on this rotation, putting a lot more pressure on you if you fold this hand and don't double up. It's not just your chance at 2nd you're increasing, but your chance at 3rd as well. I don't think I need to mention the fact that 99 is a pretty sizeable favorite over the raiser's range here.
