what do you do here? i thought the guy who check-raised had an overset. possibly 2 pair, but i thought he probably 77. i thought the initial bettor (the one who called the all-in) was probably on a flush draw.

was i too much of a pussy for not calling here? did i pretty much have to? i figured if i folded i'd have enough chips left and the blinds were still low that i could make a comeback.

Here, you have an awesome chance to triple up. Anyone could have two pair at this level, or even worse, as you've seen.

Call. You can't pin anyone on an overset here, just call. Don't be a pussy, NEVER fold a set at low level SNGs w/o possible straight or flushes MADE. NEVER.
