How are there so many chips in play?

The answer to your question is very read dependent. Is the SB an aggressive player who raises a lot of pots? Has he only shown down good hands? What's the buy-in? etc etc. We can't answer this question without further information.

It's a 25 dollar sng on stars. Thay's why there are so many chips in play because stars sngs you get 1500 instead of 1k. The sb has been moderately agressive but he's not the type of guy who would be making a complete bluff in this spot. I don't have that great a read on him because I was 4 tabling and didn't see that many pots he was involved in.

Fold then. At the very least you are up against 2 overcards. At worst you are dominated by an overpair that won't fold to a push. If the SB was playing loose, I would push the 7s and expect him to fold.

Hes not folding to a push here and you dont want to see a showdown here so i think you have to fold.

turn one 7 into a 10 and poosh...or just fold...either way
No FE and you should be good enough to steal enough pots to gain EV later.

Wouldn't this make more sense vs. a tight player?
